I am Steve Gladstone and I am asking for your vote! Lincoln enjoys a distinct rural character uniquely congenial among towns so near Boston. It is a fundamental aspect of our special town spirit and community, one that deserves to be maintained to *“Keep Lincoln, Lincoln."* By this I mean: We must maintain what is good and improve on what needs to be changed. This mindfully managed evolution, building success on success, is one of my deepest commitments.
*Town Participation:* Shortly after we settled in Lincoln 15 years ago, I served on Lincoln’s* Facilities* *Coordinating Committee*. Identifying usage patterns, availability, capabilities and limitations of our critical meeting spaces led to deeper engagement in the Town's management and social processes. This led to service as one of three at-large members of the *Community Center Study Committee,* then as the Planning Board representative on the *Community Center Planning & Preliminary Design Committee.* I intend to continue to advocate for this facility, whose benefits will extend to all townsfolk. *Professional Background*: Before retiring, I applied two MS degrees (Pharmacology and Medicinal Chemistry) as *Director of Research Operations at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center*. As a director in the *Office of Science and Technology*, I shared responsibility in budgeting, strategic planning, space allocation and implementation of diverse critical functions. I then took on a similar planning function at MGH, joined the management team at a pharmaceutical startup, and was an independent consultant in the biomedical research arena. An often challenging and always engaging six years on the Planning Board have reaffirmed my commitment to being actively engaged in our evolution as a town. I hope *to continue this position, *melding local concerns with projects both tactical and strategic. Some major opportunities have included Minuteman Tech, the dramatically renovated Lincoln School, the large Oriole Landing mixed-income housing development, and integrating current extremes in building size and styles into a pleasant, unified town. Please call, email or meet me with your thoughts, questions or concerns. Whatever your interests,* please** attend meetings, participate and vote!* -- Steve Gladstone 67 Winter St. Lincoln, MA 01773 H: 781-259-0014 C: 617-784-9731
