SENATOR NEEDLEMAN RELEASES STATEMENT FOLLOWING APPOINTMENT OF DAVID ARCONTI AS PURA COMMISSIONER
Today, State Senator Norm Needleman (D-Essex) issued the following statement following the appointment of former State Representative David Arconti as a commissioner of the Connecticut Public Utilities Regulatory Authority, the state agency overseeing services of investor-owned utilities, such as electric, natural gas, water and telecommunications:
“First, I want to thank Jack Betkowski for his many years of service to the state of Connecticut as a member of PURA’s board. I’d also like to compliment Governor Lamont on making a great choice to fill his seat, bringing new blood and a different perspective to the Authority, and congratulate David Arconti, a long-time member and two-time co-chair of the Energy & Technology Committee. He’s bringing a level of expertise to PURA that will serve ratepayers and residents of Connecticut well. His work ethic and good judgement, and his thoughtful approach to energy policy, offered me a lot to learn from in my time working with him. I believe he will be a great addition to the Authority’s board.” |
