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
