Hello Lincoln neighbors!

My name is Jason Lee and I have lived in Lincoln for one year with my 14 year 
old twins.  I love the town and would like to volunteer my time, skills, and 
abilities to keep it a great place for all residents.

Thus, I am asking you to vote for me to fill the open position on the Board of 
Water Commissioners.  As you may know, Commissioner Jim Hutchinson has 
announced he is resigning his seat to run for the Select Board, and 
Commissioner Ruth Ann Hendrickson's term is almost complete and she is running 
to fill Jim’s remaining 2 years.  That leaves a 3 year term empty and it needs 
to be filled.

It has been my pleasure to meet with Jim, Ruth Ann, and Commissioner Michelle 
Barnes to assess the job; I have also attended the last two Board meetings and 
read minutes from prior meetings. I believe the mission of the Board is 
important and that I can fill the open seat very well.

As you know, the governing functions of the Town are performed by volunteers.  
I am willing to volunteer to be a Water Commissioner, and that is perhaps my 
most important qualification for the job. Other assets I bring to the task are:

PhD in social psychology from University of Michigan (to give me insight into 
the social dynamics that are part of any group).
A decade working as a researcher and counsel for the US Congress in Washington 
DC (back when there was a little more willingness to reach across the aisle for 
the common good).
Senior member of teams that determined and managed funding of health care 
research supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the Assistant 
Secretary for Planning and Evaluation of the Department of Health and Human 
Services (should help with a significant part of the role, which entails making 
decisions about scoping and awarding grants and evaluating grantees’ 
performance, to help accomplish mission-driven work).
Currently direct a Forum of individuals from diverse healthcare companies to 
develop standards for a global hospital enterprise architecture (plays well in 
groups).

Thank you for your vote!  I hope we have a chance to say hello some day,

Jason Lee
