Open Space Committee appoints Mark Russo to fill member seat
Summary
The Open Space Committee welcomed Mark Russo and approved his appointment; Russo described 15 years of prior local government and CPC experience and said he aims to help assemble multi-source funding for longer-term open-space projects.
The Open Space Committee voted to approve and send information to the select board regarding new member Mark Russo, who was introduced at the meeting and confirmed by voice vote. "I love open space. I love protecting open space," Russo said as he described his interest in multi-source funding and his willingness to work on projects that can take several years to complete.
Russo said he and his wife bought a home in Mashpee Heights two years ago and noted his past public-service experience: "I was a selectman there for 15 years. I chaired the community preservation committee for 15 years and sat in on open space meetings for 10 years." Committee members welcomed Russo and moved to approve his appointment; the motion carried on vocal assent. The chair said she will forward Russos information to Joan Franklini, who chairs the related commission, and that Franklini will be in touch.
