Francis Brady

Francis Brady, democratic candidate for Granby Town Moderator

If elected as Town Moderator, I believe that my professional and civic background should prove to be of benefit to that position.

I am an attorney by profession. For some 40 years, I practiced in Hartford representing corporations in contested matters (trials and arbitrations). During that time, I served as President of the Hartford County Bar Association and later as President of the Connecticut Bar Association.

Before moving to Granby in 2001, my family and I lived in Windsor. In that community, I served in a number of positions including, Mayor, Deputy Mayor and member of the Town Council. I also served as the lead Elections Moderator and as Moderator for a number of Town Meetings at which the annual budget was submitted for the discussion and approval by the voters.

In our present hometown of Granby, I served on the Board of Finance for 12 years. I also served on the 3 most recent Charter Revision Commissions (in addition to having served on 2 Charter Revision Commissions in Windsor).

If elected as Granby’s Town Moderator, I would do my best to fairly administer the procedural aspects of our Town Meetings. If not elected, I will wish the victor well and return to my relatively quiet retired life.
