As your Council Representative for nearly two years, I understand the pressures facing our district. Comprised of dense neighborhoods built largely before 1950, District 4 surrounds the downtown business district and is adjacent to the UMass campus.Homes here are often large and frequently multi-unit; they are highly desirable for families but are also under intense pressure to house the many students unable to find rooms on campus. During my term on Town Council, I have worked to protect the quality of life of our neighborhoods by:
Letter: Let’s Build – In A Way That’s Good For Amherst! – Amherst Indy
Letter: Plan First, Zoning Second – Amherst Indy
Letter: Broader Planning Needed In Lieu Of Miscellaneous Zoning Changes – Amherst Indy
Letter: Proposed Changes To Zoning Priorities Require Community Impact Review – Amherst Indy
