I’ve just been inducted into the Roxbury Zoning Commission and I am most excited about the work ahead. I have always believed in good zoning as it protects property values and organizes a municpality into areas of common uses, allowing buyers to have a degree of confidence where they choose to invest, be it a home or other type of property.

I am now happily a member of the Roxbury Bridgewater Garden Club. Meetings are educational and fun (with fabulous refreshments), and the membership is most welcoming. I’ve had an interest in gardening since I was 7 and these folks are so knowledgable and willing to share their wisdom. Community projects, informational forums and really interesting gardening events and day trips are at the backbone of this group.
