The Kiwanis Club of Wilton is the longest established service organization in Wilton, CT. We support organizations in need, with an emphasis on children. We raise funds, distribute contributions, and lead community building service activities to enhance our Town and surrounding areas. Through a common sense of purpose and meaningful service lasting friendships are formed. And, we make Wilton a better place to live and work.
Wilton First Selectman Lynne Vanderslice and Planning and Land Use Management director Bob Nerney announced the appointment of Michael P. Conklin as the new Director of Environmental Affairs for the town.
Vanderslice said, “Mike is an outstanding candidate who has been acting in the capacity of interim director following the departure of Pat Sesto last June.”
Nerney added, “We believe Mike’s educational background combined with his work knowledge and familiarity of Wilton will serve our community well.”
Conklin previously served as Wilton’s Environmental Analyst where he managed permit review functions and participated in other town initiatives including Wilton’s deer management program, tree committee projects and the town’s hazardous waste collection program.
Conklin holds a bachelor’s degree in Natural Resources Management from the University of Connecticut and a master’s degree in environmental science from the University of New Haven. He is a certified soil scientist who also holds a certificate in Geographical Information Systems Management, a computer-based program system that allows the town to perform studies using electronic mapping.
“Wilton is a community that has historically placed great emphasis on protecting its natural resources and developing programs aimed at enhancing the quality of life for our residents. Mike will play a vital role in overseeing the continued development of the Norwalk River Valley Trail system as well as several other key projects. Bob and I are confident Mike will utilize his energy and vision in a way that will positively serve our town,” stated Vanderslice. Conklin’s appointment becomes effective February 1, 2016.
