This election season, I’m getting a lot of questions about the Rail Trail and my position relative to the Rail Trail.
As a mom and Precinct 5 Town Meeting member, I did support the Rail Trail. I also completely respect Town Meeting’s decision not to pursue the project and am now focused on how we can move forward to improve access to Dedham’s other natural resources.
As a Selectman, I am interested in harnessing all of the passion and energy for green space and passive recreation toward other opportunities.
1. Improving access to and awareness of the Town Forest
2. Opening access to Wigwam Pond
3. Improving Rte. 1 to allow pedestrians and cyclists safe travel and crossings
4. Ensuring funding comes through for sidewalks on Rustcraft Road.
There are so many ways we can move forward together, and I know I can be a leader that reaches across neighborhoods and across divides to help make decisions that benefit the entire town.
