Here’s Olvany’s speech, as prepared (no words have been changed, but minor editorial style changes have been made and headlines added): 

Thank you, Mr. Moderator and fellow elected officials. Good evening everyone, I am Stephen Olvany, Chairman of the Planning and Zoning Commission. I was recently elected as the chair and I am very excited for the position and for its challenges. Thanks, Board Members
Before I commence with my update, I would like to extend my thanks to my fellow commissioners for all their hard work and dedication.

To the editor:

I am delighted to support George Reilly for Darien Planning and Zoning Commission. After 35 years of practicing law and active participation in various community organizations including Darien Board of Selectman, Norwalk Community College Foundation, King School Board of Trustees, and Center for Hope, George understands this Town. He and I were colleagues for most of his nine-year tenure on the Board of Education. When considering new programs, facilities and budgets, George was a staunch advocate for all students. He did his homework, offered intelligent and insightful comments and based on his decisions on solid analysis.  He was inclusive and considerate of differing opinions as we deliberated potentially contentious topics.
