A Worthy Neighborhood Cause

Several people have offered to donate to my campaign, but since I'm unopposed, I have suggested that donations be made to the Beacon Field Playground project.

There are many ways to support the project -- find more info here: http://www.beaconplayground.org/.

Responsibility, Fairness, Transparency

Three years ago we chose to buy our first home and invest in Greenfield, for its location, its neighborhoods, its accessible downtown, its proximity to mountains and farmland. Since we moved here, Greenfield has undergone exciting new development. As we enjoy the new services and offerings of our town, I'd like to give back.

I demand that my public officials conduct their duties responsibly, fairly, and openly, and I would expect no less from myself if elected Town Councilor.

I will:

  • Communicate regularly with my neighbors/constituents, via this blog
  • Listen to concerns raised by community members, and as needed, help create a forum for discussion of those issues
  • Collaborate with my fellow councilors to manage issues that affect the town
  • Help balance tough choices in a time of tight budgets and reduced revenue, making sure that members of our community aren't left out or left behind
  • Work with councilors, the mayor, the community, and businesses to shape a vision for Greenfield's future
