I am announcing my bid for re-election to the Planning Board for the Town of Lincoln because we are facing important key issues that require a commitment to collaborative, responsible, and sensible planning. These issues could have an effect on Lincoln for many years to come.
During my years serving on the Planning Board I have learned a tremendous amount about how towns function and plan for the future. There have been several controversial issues that have come before our board, from renovations of an historic church, to new schools, a mental health residential facility, a new rental development, and the exclusion of marijuana establishments from our town. In each case I have listened carefully to abutters and people most affected and heard the views on all sides, researching the issues and possibilities, and most of all, voting responsibly to preserve the bylaw of our town and its unique environment. If re-elected, I will continue to dedicate the next three years to serve you in this way.
I would very much like to hear your views about current topics now being discussed, such as: how or if we can comply with the Housing Choice Act without losing the desirable rural character of Lincoln, and how we can come up with a sensible community center plan that serves our residents well without raising taxes, or any other I have not mentioned.
I can best be reached by personal email (delisi76@aol.com0 and I look forward to hearing from you.
