They provide an invaluable service to the communities they serve
“ENE Strategies and Vin Ragucci provide an invaluable service to the communities they serve when it comes to working with the legislature and advancing the goals of public power, as evidenced through their work championing the recent Climate Bill (SB-30). Locally, Vin Ragucci was instrumental in the passing of two Home Rule Petitions for the town of Littleton. These Home Rule Petitions enabled the town of Littleton to form a Sewer Division under the Water Commissioners and helped site a Treatment Plant to remove PFAS compounds, Iron and Manganese from the source water in Littleton. Vin’s industry knowledge, state connections, and empathetic character make him a true asset to our residents.”
