Barry Sanders announces run for 3rd term on Council
May 14, 2021
Taunton City Councilor Barry Sanders, has announced that he will seek a third term on the Council.
“The people of Taunton are independent-minded, compassionate and engaged, and they deserve a local government that reflects and supports those values,” Sanders said. “That is why I have consistently advocated for transparency and public engagement in the decisions facing our community and will continue to do so. The people of Taunton put me in this seat. I work for them.”
Barry successfully advocated for public input to be included in the Council agenda, including phone input during the pandemic. As chair of Public Health and Environmental Affairs, Barry is working to ensure that the public has access to important information about the proposed Aries gasification plant, including environmental and health concerns.
“Taunton is stronger and richer because of our diverse community,” he said. “I am grateful for the opportunities to work with people throughout the community on issues of economic, racial and environmental justice. Our best days are yet to come. We can build a thriving community that works for and embraces everyone.”
In addition to serving as a City Councilor since 2018, Barry is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has worked for more than 30 years in the Greater Taunton area helping people who are experiencing poverty, violence, mental health and substance use issues. He is also an instructor at Bridgewater State University’s School of Social Work.
