“Andrea Kelley's long resume of leadership in Newton and expertise in site planning and landscape architecture underpin the valuable contributions she’s made on both the Land Use and Public Facilities committees in her first term.

Deb Crossley, City Councilor, Chair, Public Facilities Committee April 2019
"Newton voters are lucky to have an environmental champion like Andrea Kelley. She has been a passionate advocate for increasing energy efficiency, accelerating the transition to renewable energy, reducing waste, and making Newton a more walkable and bike-friendly city. She has done excellent work in her first two years, and we look forward to continuing to work together to make Newton a leader on environmental protection and climate resilience."
Jordan Meehan, Chair, Political Committee Massachusetts Sierra Club July 2019
“Andrea has been a thoughtful and effective member of the City Council during her first term in office. She has successfully built on her long history of active involvement in Newton's civic affairs and her professional expertise as a landscape architect in making the transition to service as an elected official. Please join me in voting for her for re-election to the City Council.”
Marc Laredo, President, Newton City Council July 2019
“Andrea Kelley is a long-time Newton resident who has been involved in numerous school and civic groups over several decades and was an NTA endorsed council candidate in 2017. For many years, she served on the Design Review Committee that oversees the development of new school infrastructure and is currently a member of the Public Facilities Committee. Her role in these two positions makes her uniquely qualified to understand the needs of public school facilities and public education. She believes that all employees should have access to Newton’s health coverage, and believes councilors can urge the mayor to move quickly to a fair resolution to the union contracts.
