Mal LeichterBoard of FinanceMal (Malcolm) Leichter and his wife Maryanne live in the house they built on Wellswood Road, where they raised their two children both RHAM and UCONN graduates. Mal holds a BS in Education from Central Connecticut State University with a Bachelor of Science in Education and a Master of Science in Communications and Instructional Media from CCSU. Mal has been a house builder, a trade where "we all learned the value of hardwork and teamwork" Leichter says, as well as "the 'Art' of interpersonal skills and the value of a buck". He worked for IBM and quickly rose through the ranks managing banking industry customers throughout Connecticut who used IBM Computers and high speed check processing equipment. In this role, he had the financial responsibility of protecting and growing a $3.5 million revenue stream for the services and consulting his team provided. In 1993 Mal became a technical consultant for a small group of national high-end computing customers, helping customers achieve continuous availability of their business systems. This position involved the acquisition and management of major investments in technology as well as technical and management consulting. As a result, Mal traveled throughout all of New England and New York working with technical customers and business executives and helping them focus on their common goal of growing their businesses. In 1996 Mal accepted the position as the Director of Business and Technology for the Lebanon Public Schools where he was responsible for all of the financial aspects of a $17 million dollar budget. Lebanon is a fiscally conservative town and Leichter managed budgets that had minimal increases each year. Since retiring in 2011, Mal has filled his life with family and volunteer activities. He is currently a four-term incumbent on the Hebron Board of Finance. Over those 16 years, he has worked to minimize increases and still provide what the town needs. His work has helped reduce Hebron’s mill rate, keeping dollars in taxpayers’ pockets. During his term, he helped eliminate supplemental appropriations for pet projects. Mal prides himself in the fact that he has participated in a non-partisan manner while on the Board of Finance. He has also served as a past member, Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Capital Improvement Program Committee (CIP) and currently serves as a member of the Public Building committee. Mal’s hopes to continue his tenure on the Hebron Board of Finance. He knows the world of private industry, the world of education and the world of public finance. Most importantly, he understands municipal government: its laws, auditing requirements, and the intricacies of municipal finance. He is fiscally conservative but is willing to spend money where it is necessary: "The right way to keep a town growing is to expand its tax base and to budget efficiently."
