My Turn: Levinson seeks election to Planning Board

February 23, 2023

(Editor’s note: Levinson is one of three candidates running for two seats on the Planning Board along with Craig Nicholson and incumbent Lyn DeLisi. Incumbent Bob Domnitz filed papers to run for another term but recently withdrew his name and endorsed Levinson.)

By Mark Levinson

I am pleased to announce my candidacy for one of the two open seats on the Lincoln Planning Board.

I have lived near Lincoln Station for almost 25 years and have been active in issues affecting our neighborhood and the town. I have served as one of two neighborhood liaisons to the Planning Board and its South Lincoln Planning Advisory Committee (SLPAC). I have also been committed to environmental issues, and volunteered for many years for the Sudbury Valley Trustees, a very active and successful land conservation organization.

I think that town planning is a key factor in allowing Lincoln to navigate current and future challenges, while preserving the character of the town and our wonderful quality of life. I believe I share the goals of many Lincolnites for our neighborhood and our town: viability of local businesses, diversity, encouraging use of public transportation, and generally doing what we can to fight climate change while maintaining the rural character of our town.

I will represent the views and opinions of all Lincoln residents, not only those of my neighborhood. I will do my best to be open-minded, always considering the facts and likely outcomes of any course of action, knowing that actions to promote one goal may sometimes produce adverse consequences for others.

I ask for your support on election day, Monday, March 27. Thank you and best regards.

Mark Levinson
8 Ridge Road, Lincoln
