Zachary Reichelt Running For Manchester Manchester Directors

MANCHESTER, CT — Republican Zachary S Reichelt, 32, is running for Manchester Board of Directors in Manchester.

Occupation: Owner/manager Of Reichelt Construction Contracting, Llc

Family:
Father: Jon Reichelt
Mother: Laura Reichelt

Wife: Vanessa Reichelt

Three Beautiful Children

Experience: Building Committee

Family in government: no

The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:

We need to see encouragement and support for parent / legal guardians and to recognize their achievements in successfully raising children during this pandemic and support their continued resilience. Seeing my wife give birth not knowing if I would be allowed in the room with her was extremely difficult as well as seeing my wife Vanessa stay home raising our three children without the usual community support. I want to ensure parents that they have a voice and that they are heard!

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I am a candidate that is purely motivated by wanting to see the next generation of Manchester residents (our youth) thrive in an economy that is booming and ready to support them. I want to see our youth enjoy Main Street in a way my grandparents enjoyed it: every store front full of goods and people willing to buy them. I want Manchester to look not only to today when making financial decisions but to support the next generation who we truly care about.

Accomplishments:

I would say being a father to my three children and being a husband is my greatest achievement in life.

Owning and running a business from 2012 to current day

Graduating from Norwich University in Vermont with a BS in Engineering Management.

Participating in a Mountain Cold Weather Rescue Team while at Norwich

Currently serving on the Building Committee in Manchester

Lived my whole life in Manchester: Graduated from MHS, Bennet, and and Washington. I know Manchester well and care about this town immensely.

Other issues:

A current issue that is not unique to Manchester is crime.

I think that those who wish to commit a crime against a resident of Manchester should be afraid of the consequences. Carjacking and petty theft is on the rise and I want to ensure those who live in Manchester that crime will not escalate and will be resolved in an appropriate way.

What else would you like voters to know about you?

I believe Manchester is a great place to live and raise children and is a true expression of the American way of life.
