I have served as an alternate for the Planning Board for over three years.  I am now running for Planning Board because I would like to continue with the work the Board has been doing and because I feel it is important to be involved in, and give back to, my community.  The Planning Board offers me an opportunity to use my background and experience as a lawyer to do just that. This is ultimately the same reason why I volunteered as an alternate to the Board in the first place. My wife and I made Goffstown our home and I am running for Planning Board because I want to help ensure that Goffstown remains the kind of town all of us are proud to call our home.
