Write me in for Town Meeting!

In P9, one pro-housing candidate, Matthew Caldeira, needed to withdraw after the ballots were finalized. I stepped up as a replacement candidate.

Town Meeting in P9 is otherwise uncontested: you can vote for any or all of the other four candidates and also write me in.

Issues

Housing and zoning reform. I love Brookline, but few people I know can afford to live here. All of metro Boston (and much of the U.S.!) has a housing crisis, and we have the tools to make it better.

Attend any Zoning Board of Appeals meeting to learn what obstacles face even moderate new construction. We have old, restrictive zoning that makes it difficult to build dense and affordable housing. Precinct 9’s streets are lined with beautiful multifamily homes built a century ago that couldn’t be built today because of those restrictions! This is something Town Meeting can change.

Climate change. We have so much we can do beyond banning plastic bags and regulating leaf blowers. Denser housing, more mass transit, multimodal streets – all of these offer huge opportunities to reduce overall environmental impact.

Go here to see my answers to 2024 questionnaires from B4E, BEC, and other local organizations. (I did not answer 2025 questionnaires because I didn’t realize I would be running!)
