JOHN SANTANELLA - TOWN COUNCIL DISTRICT 2

John Santanella is a lifelong Enfield resident who has devoted his career to strengthening his hometown and the State of Connecticut. He proudly serves as State Representative for the 58th District and as the Democratic Minority Leader on the Enfield Town Council, where he has earned a reputation as a thoughtful, results‑driven leader.

Raised in Enfield’s public schools—Enfield Street School, JFK Middle, and Enfield High—John went on to earn a B.A. in Political Science and an MBA in Marketing and Finance from Boston College. His professional background in brand marketing and product development for companies such as Parker Brothers/Hasbro, Milton Bradley and Nickelodeon gave him a deep understanding of how to grow organizations, nurture ideas, and deliver tangible results. He later brought that same entrepreneurial spirit home, advising and operating small businesses which he owns and operates.

Elected to the Enfield Town Council in 2021, John quickly emerged as Minority Leader, is an ardent supporter of public schools, helping guide initiatives that revitalized local commerce, confronting blight throughout the community, enforcing proper licensing of vehicles, and maintaining a sound fiscal policy to properly invest in our future.

In January 2025, John brought his dedication and experience to the State Capitol as Representative for the 58th District. He serves on the Commerce, Planning & Development, and Public Safety & Security Committees, focusing on priorities that directly impact working families: strong schools, vibrant small businesses, affordable housing, accessible childcare, and safe neighborhoods. Among his proudest achievements is securing a $10 million state grant for the redevelopment of the Enfield Square—a funding victory he personally drove from start to finish.

John Santanella is excited to continue dedicating his time and energy to serving in both of these elected roles because he deeply believes in the future of Enfield. He is committed to helping shape that future for as long as the people of this community place their trust in him to do so.
