Reason for Interest in Running for Elected Office:
Having served on the new DPL Building Committee, the Fund Raising Committee and currently serving as an alternate trustee (current one-year term up in March), I am running for one of the open trustee positions to be able to continue to serve the Town and the Library. With completion of the new Library this year, I’m anxious to help establish effective policies and assist the library staff and the public with the transition from the library’s current location in the Mill Road Plaza to the new facility on Madbury Road.
