Primiano: Fostering private-public partnerships

Posted

Many residents I meet tell me they would like more recreational, community, and cultural opportunities in Barrington. The town has been adding to and improving parks and trails. The recreation department has been adding programs and events. I believe we can do even more if we leverage town assets by partnering with private groups.

In responding to the most recent “Question of the Week” I realized how many partnerships we already have.  Our partners come with expertise and enthusiasm, and involving more volunteers fosters a greater sense of community. The recent “Day of Caring” is an excellent example of what can be accomplished when the town partners with other organizations.

I will continue to look for creative ways to promote and support programs and projects that add to our quality of life, promote volunteerism, and build a stronger community.
