- Bouvier said he is also sponsoring legislation for community choice aggregation, an energy plan that would offer residents lower costs per kilowatt-hour and the ability to choose their sources of electricity.
- Bouvier said he wants to focus on water quality and energy issues if re-elected, as well as focusing on infrastructure projects such as replacing aging cesspools across town.
