Meet Steve Dunn & Bob Belden
Meet the Team for Brookfield's Future
Restore Civility
Brookfield is a great place to live. But recently, town politics have been looking more like Washington, D.C., than the town we love. Steve and Bob will restore civility to Town Hall, so we can continue to be proud of the place we call home.
Manage Development
Significant capital investments like a new police station, the new library, and new athletic fields are on the way. We need an experienced team in place to keep development on track, on schedule, and on budget.
Honest Budgeting
With decades of experience in both global and municipal finance between them, Steve Dunn and Bob Belden are uniquely positioned to deliver an honest budget at the lowest possible cost to Brookfield taxpayers.
