Disqualified by the GLA Board on November 6th.
Disqualified by the GLA Board on November 6th.
Marshall Haley was disqualified by the GLA Board at their November 6th meeting. Candidate Haley failed to pay his assessment by October 31st and thus per the Covenants, is no longer "a member in good standing". All checked box votes on absentee ballots for him are now void. Unlike candidate Rakela, no new ballot will be issued for South Glastonbury landowners.
Occupation: Semi-retired; part-time editor.
Previous board experience:
· Served on board of my local church in Phoenix, AZ.
. As a newspaper reporter in Woodinville, WA and Goodyear, AZ, I attended many city council meetings and interviewed council members to report their reasons for voting as they did on key issues that impacted taxpayers.
· At Bellevue Community College, Bellevue, WA:
o Student Body Vice-President, Communications and Finance ('90-91) · Chaired student-faculty committee for hearing requests from, and dispersing $500,000 of student funds in budget allotments to, various departments; served on various staff-faculty-student policy committees; publicized student events; wrote letters to state representatives on state education Issues.
Skills, qualifications or interests that will assist my service as a board member:
· I am known as a fair-minded, inquisitive, respectful listener to all sides of an issue.
· Interest in the common good: helping fellow residents decide how to best serve our community and achieve optimal benefits to all affected by our decisions.
· As a mental-health case manager on a psychiatric team, I personally served the needs of 45-50 mentally ill clients to help them achieve optimal levels of independent living.
· Known as an effective, responsive communicator, I do not appreciate 'stonewalling' by anyone. I am known as an 'out of the box' thinker, looking for unique problem solving methods while striving to maintain good humor and good will toward everyone.
What I hope to accomplish while serving the Glastonbury community as a board member:
. Our residents come from many varied backgrounds, yet we all must strive to achieve harmonious community ('come into unity') relations and reach decisions that satisfy individual needs- as much as those do not conflict with the communal needs of all.
