I’m writing to endorse Terie Diat for North Haven Village trustee.
Terie is an energetic, experienced leader with a wide array of executive skills, keen analysis and calm judgment. She is a lifelong resident of the area who loves it and understands its character as well as the changes that inevitably take place and how to balance conservation with development that is good for all.
Having served with Terie on the residential board of North Haven Manor, I can attest to these qualities personally. Here is just one example: She singlehandedly organized our annual meeting of 85 homeowners via a Zoom call, and worked out the technology to devise an online balloting system that enabled our residents to not just attend but to vote confidentially on a wide range of issues, via their home screens.
The result was one of the best-attended and best-run meetings we have ever had — better than most of our meetings in person, actually.
As a resident of North Haven for more than 25 years, I would feel utterly confident our local leadership knowing that Terie was a part of it.
