PUTNEY — I am running for the open seat on the Putney Selectboard. I'm a semi-retired attorney and have lived on West Hill Road since 2015. I have practiced for the past 44 years in New York City, specializing in administrative law and civil litigation.
In Putney, I have served on the board of trustees of Yellow Barn; in Windham County, I am currently on the Groundworks Collaborative board. My wife, Ann Macdonald, has also been active in the life of our community as a director of both the Brattleboro Museum and Arts Center and Latchis Arts.
My interest in being a Selectboard member is spurred by the opportunity to contribute sound judgment to the governance of our town. I well recognize that Putney voters wish to express their views openly and forthrightly.
Be assured that I will give a full hearing to matters you bring to your board.
Respectfully, I ask for your vote.
