Parziale, 32, is a father who says he's dedicated to his son Nairam and step-daughter Jaden Dumont. He has commuted into Boston daily for 14 years to the job he loves as a co-host of the Hill-Man morning show at WAAF. "I have never called in sick or been late for work, I dedicate myself 110 percent and will work equally hard if elected to the City Council," Parziale said.

Issues that Matter

If elected, Parziale says his goal would be to meet with the taxpayer to hear their issues and suggestions and to work diligently to come up with new ways to solve issues facing the city. One of his more pressing concerns is bringing business back into Attleboro.

"There are far too many vacant buildings in the city and we need to work together for a creative approach to bring new industry to Attleboro".  

Parziale states that he feels it is important for the city to plan for a new high school to be built as "placing band aids on the existing building will most likely cost more in the long term."

He also would like to see a new on ramp and off ramp built in South Attleboro to increase access to local business. 

Parziale went on to say that he would be proud to be part of making the City of Attleboro a positive example for other cities by being responsible, self supporting, having a balanced budget and ultimately providing a strong sense of community where people want to live and raise their families.
