Peter Case: Vote for Ian Goodnow

Having served with Ian on the Brattleboro Select Board I can tell you that his approach to governing is sensible, realistic, and practical. Did I mention he has a true passion for this work! He truly enjoys creating policy that makes things better. He’s a critical thinker who understands how it all falls into place. Plus, the guy is always smiling and optimistic and how can you not like that?

Ian Goodnow understands Vermont; he was raised north of here in Essex and, as most young people do, he left for a bit before coming back to make his life here in Brattleboro. He ran for Select Board, won and held his seat for four years, chairing two of those years. He brought a tremendous amount of empathy and policy with him, and trust me when I tell you, those two things are difficult to merge. Yet, he did it successfully while holding a high standard for both members of the audience and his fellow board members.
