Mahon About Town Nantucket Blog

Newly elected Nantucket Selectman Allen Reinhard received the Massachusetts Travel Industry Hospitality Award at the 20th Annual Governor’s Conference on Travel & Tourism on March 22nd in Worcester.

Outgoing Selectman Doug Bennett, not one to miss an opportunity, posted his “Farewell Address” on his blog on April 3rd. In it, he addresses issues such as housing, transportation (I support the construction of a well-designed, historically appropriate parking facility as part of a downtown transportation center on the former electric company property), alternative energy (I urge the further examination of not only wind energy, but tidal and current energy in the general area of south of Tuckernuck), and the citizenry (We should focus our energy on the positive, welcoming new residents of different ethnic backgrounds, encouraging young people to be involved in political life and sharing the wealth of our island community). He lists 17 “accomplishments”, and says “I’ll always be available to you or the incoming board members to share my advice or experiences.” Bennett was recently named campaign director for a Republicans running in a special election in the 11th Norfolk District
