I announce my candidacy for the one-year seat of the Select Board of Maynard. The people of Maynard deserve a real choice about those who manage the affairs of the town. I will bring a commitment to support the the Master Plan, and the Community Development Principles. I will collaborate with others and seek meaningful resolution to the differences of opinion that inevitably exist between groups and individuals across the town. I will work hard to build my expertise on the many different issues, recognizing that, while we may lack the deep financial resources we would prefer, we can boast a great abundance of human expertise which, if channeled well, can be used to great effect for the future of Maynard.
The Long Read: If you are interested in the longer narrative about why I am running.
