I am writing to endorse Andrew Lam for a seat on the Longmeadow Select
Board. I’ve resided in town for almost 38 years, and I’ve known Andrew
for about 15 years. I first met him when we were on the Longmeadow
Historical Commission. He helped expand the historic district by five
houses. He was also dedicated to saving and restoring the Brewer-Young
mansion. At the time, it was literally falling down. That landmark home
is now once again a showpiece in the center of town.
I’ve
also worked with Andrew on town business, while he has served on the
Finance Committee and I’ve been chair of the Community Preservation
Committee. He’s knowledgeable about the issues, and knows how to work
with other constituencies in town to get the best results.
Andrew
is a doctor, a husband and father of four, and an author. Andrew has
enormous energy, and is unequivocally dedicated to the Town of
Longmeadow. I can’t think of more qualified person to be on our Select
Board.
