Thank You!

Thank you, Lexington! Such fantastic news we did it! Winning a town-wide election is truly a testament to the collective effort of our community, and I am immensely grateful to each one of you for giving me the opportunity to serve on the Planning Board once again.

Now that the campaign has come to a close, it's time to dive back into the important tasks of working on short and long-term planning initiatives. As I embark on this new term, I am committed to upholding the values and principles that make Lexington a vibrant place to live.

Over the next three years, I plan to focus on several key goals that will help us navigate the challenges and opportunities ahead:

• Housing
• Equity and inclusivity in zoning
• Sustainability in building
• Affordable housing
• Economic Vitality
• Improving and updating our zoning practices.

I eagerly anticipate working collaboratively on all projects that may come before the

board in the months ahead. Planning Board meetings are open to the public and

available to view on Lex Media. Sign up to receive meeting agendas and packets via

email on the Town Website. I encourage everyone to ask questions, stay informed, and

remain positively involved in the process.

Thank you once again for your support and trust. Let's continue to make Lexington a

community where everyone feels welcomed and valued, and we are all proud to call

home. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions, comments, or concerns at

melaniethompsonpb@gmail.com. Your input is invaluable as we work together to shape

the future of Lexington.
