My Turn: Dozens more express support for Hutchinson

March 22, 2022

(Editor’s note: the signatories with asterisks below also signed this letter of support that was posted on March 21.)

While we are delighted that there is a contested race for Select, the Lincoln residents listed below are writing to endorse Jim Hutchinson for the Select Board. We think that Jim has the breadth and depth of experience that make him highly qualified for election to the Select Board. He has served as a member of the

  • Water Commission for two years and (currently chair)
  • Finance committee for seven years (chair for two years)
  • Subcommittees for several issues such as the process for placing solar panels on the schools
  • Green Energy Committee for eight years
  • Codman Board for three years as treasurer

Jim has a thoughtful, inclusive and collaborative approach exemplified in his service on the various town committees. His colleagues on the Finance Committee, Water Commission, and Green Energy Committee, who have enthusiastically endorsed him, describe Jim as a problem solver, a person who can balance costs and benefits, and a leader in complex decision making. In our collective view, he is an outstanding candidate for the Lincoln Select Board.

Town elections are Monday, March 28 at the Smith gym or you can vote by mail. We hope you will join us and vote for Jim Hutchinson.

Sincerely,
