Dear Lincolnites,
I am announcing my intention to run again for Water Commissioner and ask
for your vote at the town election on Monday, March 28. I will run for
the two years remaining on Jim Hutchinson’s seat rather than the
three-year seat that will also be open. Jim brought an impressive
knowledge of municipal finances that greatly benefited the Commission.
We are sad to see him go, but we are committed to using his ideas to
improve Water Department operation and long term planning.
In 2020 I was elected to a 2-year seat, and I did not expect to run
again. I have been finding, however, that the knowledge I have gained
during the last 11 years on the Commission has been very useful to the
new superintendent. Also, with Jim stepping down early, we will have a
new Commissioner to integrate into the board. I believe my presence will
provide the continuity and institutional knowledge needed as we reshape
the Commission.
During these next two years I will focus on completing the water
treatment facilities upgrade we launched 4 years ago, on taking
advantage of the ARPA funds available to update our aging water delivery
systems, and on developing a long term funding structure that will be
both fair and fiscally responsible. Above all, I am committed to
ensuring the delivery of abundant, safe drinking water to all of our
customers.
I truly enjoy working on the Water Commission, and I am committed to
help in preserving this important natural resource for the benefit of
the town. I hope the voters will give me another opportunity to serve
the town I love so well.
