I would be supportive<br \/>\nof economic development in this area and job creation initiatives in<br \/>\ngeneral.  I will work with local business owners, the chamber of commerce,<br \/>\nother town departments and residents to ensure that proposed future<br \/>\ndevelopment makes sense for the town and our residents. Small businesses<br \/>\ndrive our local economy and a successful business structure is the best way<br \/>\nto keep our property taxes in check and keep our community affordable.<\/p>\n<p>Why are you running for this office?<\/p>\n<p>\tAs a life-long Hanover resident, I am passionate about public service and<br \/>\ncommitted to our special community. I earned a Bachelor\u2019s degree in<br \/>\nGovernment from Suffolk University and I will also complete my Master\u2019s<br \/>\ndegree in Public Administration in May 2017. Professionally, I have worked<br \/>\nat the State House for the past five years where I have gained invaluable<br \/>\nexperience with regard to the inner workings of government, the legislative<br \/>\nprocess, and the complexities of our state laws and regulations. Our<br \/>\ncommunity faces a very important juncture in our history as we deal with<br \/>\ndefining issues such as the revitalization of Rt. 53 and the Hanover Mall.<br \/>\nThis area of town has provided a significant tax base that has benefited<br \/>\nall local residents for generations. Moving forward, we must support smart,<br \/>\nmodern planning that sustains successful economic development throughout<br \/>\nHanover. I strongly believe that these projects, and other strategically<br \/>\nimplemented planning initiatives are critical to the future success of our<br \/>\ncommunity. I care deeply about my hometown and I would relish the<br \/>\nopportunity to be a member of the board continually charged with the<br \/>\nresponsibilities of smart, sustained and responsible growth that benefits<br \/>\nall residents. I believe that my education, practical state government<br \/>\nexperience, knowledge of the community, strong work ethic, and passion for<br \/>\npublic service would allow me to be a strong contributor to the Hanover<br \/>\nPlanning Board. <\/p>\n<p>For &#8220;Around Town on the Web&#8221;,<br \/>\nCathy H-B<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<br \/>\n&#8220;Around Town on the Web&#8221; (&#8220;ATOTW&#8221;) has been a valued push notification<br \/>\nsince the spring of 2004 &#8211; long before there were push notifications!<\/p>\n<p>For submission guidelines and answers to frequently asked questions<br \/>\nabout &#8220;ATOTW&#8221;, please go to http:\/\/www.atotw.com.<br \/>\nTo search for archived &#8220;ATOTW&#8221; news, view the archive<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nIf you would like to be added to this distribution list, click here<\/p>\n<p>.<br \/>\nPlease follow the link in the response e-mail to validate your<br \/>\naccount.
