Montpelier, Vt. – Governor Phil Scott today announced the appointment of Ed Read as Representative for the Washington-7 district serving the towns of Fayston, Duxbury, Moretown, Waitsfield and Warren. Read, an Independent, will serve the two-seat district along with Rep. Maxine Grad (D).

I look forward to working with him and his colleagues to grow the Vermont economy.”
 
“I’m honored to have the opportunity to serve the residents of Duxbury, Moretown, Fayston, Waitsfield, and Warren,” Read said. “As a small business owner and selectman, I believe my roots in the community will serve this district well and I look forward to getting to work as soon as possible.”
