What are the major issues confronting the town which involve your office?
\nPlease express your opinion on these issues and how you propose to deal
\nwith them.
\nTown and Business Growth \u2013 This is a good problem to have but requires
\nplanning. As a long time resident of the town, I am committed to managing
\nthat growth in a way that maintains the character of the town. I will
\nachieve this by utilizing the master plan and staying true to our bylaws.
\nBylaw Updates \u2013 Many of the town\u2019s bylaws were put in place as guard
\nrails to plan for and prevent over development. Many of the bylaws are
\nfoundational and solid which allows our community to maintain its unique
\nappeal and charm. However, we also need to acknowledge that things change
\nover time. Thus, it is critical that the Planning Board listens to the
\nneeds of residents and local businesses alike to adapt the bylaws to best
\nserve all parties. For example, this year the Planning Board is proposing a
\nyearlong moratorium on the Village Planned Unit Development (VPUD) bylaw.
\nThis bylaw was created and utilized to promote development along Route 53.
\nGiven the increase of recent developments and projects that fall under the
\nVPUD bylaw, the proposed moratorium will give the Planning Board time to
\nreview this bylaw and ensure that all future developments are in the best
\ninterest of the town. It is vital that the Planning Board remain vigilant
\nwith both enforcing our current bylaws and ensuring they work for and make
\nsense for our residents and the town.
\nWhy Are You Running For Office:
\nThe Town of Hanover has always been very important to me. I believe that
\nall the boards and committees in town have a direct impact on our community
\nin different ways. I have the utmost respect for those who volunteer their
\ntime to be a part of making this town better on a daily basis. It truly
\ndoes take a village. The Planning Board affords me the opportunity to
\nimpact current and future development to ensure it is beneficial and
\nfitting to the community we all call home. <\/p>\n
Working with the planning board to encourage more participation with
\nlong-term planning (master plan). Continue to work with the board to create
\nmore reasonable price housing for seniors in first time homeowners.<\/p>\n
I’ve been on the planning board for over 15 years as an associate member.
\nLast year I was appointed to an unfilled position and would like to
\ncontinue as an elected member of the board.<\/p>\n
