Why am I running?

My name is Arthur Doyle and I am a candidate in the special election for the Select Board on November 4. I am running to contribute my town government experience during a time of transition. That experience will fit well with our Select Board during the 18 month period filled by this election due to a resignation. It will support a board that recently added two new members and will likely add one or two new members in April 2026. If elected, I will serve only the remainder of the vacant term which will conclude in April 2027. As a Select Board member from 2020-2023, I served on its Finance Committee, Policy Committee, and as its representative to the Master Plan Implementation Committee. During 2022-2023, I was selected to chair the Board. My initial engagement in town government began as a Precinct 6 Town Meeting Member for over a decade, along with several years on the Conservation Commission.   While assigned elsewhere in the country by my employer, I was elected and re-elected to the Ridgewood, New Jersey Board of Education. Returning to New England, my wife, Susan, and our three children sought a community best suited for us. Milton was our choice.  I was subsequently elected a Town Meeting Member from Precinct 7, reappointed to the Conservation Commission, and became co-chair for the Long Range Planning Committee of the Milton Public Schools, to which I brought graduate business training and experience in strategic planning. That committee produced recommendations for enhancing our schools and the community, including the creation of our consolidated facilities management program.   I served on the Business and Citizens' Advisory Committee to the East Milton Square Parking and Access Study, as an Election Warden for Precinct 3 and Precinct 4, and am a member of the Climate Action Planning Committee.  Collaboration and timely decision-making are crucial to sustaining Milton as a quality community for all its citizens today and tomorrow. This requires vision and experience essential to a first-rate community for our families and our neighbors.   I ask for your vote on November 4.  With gratitude, Arthur Doyle
