Letter to the editor: Lise Olney not running for re-election to Wellesley Select Board

To the editor:

I’m deeply grateful to the Wellesley community for the opportunity to serve on the Select Board since 2019, and I will not be running for re-election in March. It has been a great pleasure to work with our exceptional Town staff and so many colleagues throughout town government whose dedication has been an inspiration to me. I feel very fortunate to have served as the Select Board representative on the Climate Action Committee and as chair and vice chair of the Board, while also supporting the work of many boards and committees as Select Board liaison. Serving in these roles has allowed me to get to know many people throughout our community and has given me even more reasons to be thankful to call Wellesley my home.

I look forward to continuing to serve for the next several months, and I hope to be re-elected to Town Meeting in March.

With gratitude,
Lise Olney
Select Board
Town Meeting Member for Precinct E
