Serve Hamden
​
Hamden’s Republican Town Committee (RTC) strongly encourages all registered Republicans to apply for appointments as Commissioners on Hamden’s Boards & Commissions where openings exist for Republican members or “Any Party” members, in fact, the Charter of the Town of Hamden specifically grants “Minority Party Representation.” And, as Republicans, we should take advantage of this non-elective approach to influencing Town outcomes, ensuring transparency, and representing conservative values.
