Congratulations to Mr. Jackson

Congratulations to Mr. Jackson on his election to the Shore Towers board. My hope is that, after an foreshortened election process, Mr. Jackson and the rest of the board take a more progressive, forward-looking approach to managing the building as the neighborhood becomes increasingly competitive. That means seeking out and investing in ways to exploit otherwise untapped resources.

I also want to thank Frank Miller for his spirited entry into the ring. Apparently, he and I share a number of similar opinions on the best ways to move the building forward while keeping it profitable and competitive. Unfortunately, election processes being what they are, we were never afforded the opportunity to speak in private about the issues.r But I know where our interests diverge, and as a result, I felt the need to stay in the race. Frank has some excellent ideas and his professional experience could certainly be a help to the building in the future.

I know that very few people have actually followed this blog, but I invite you to come to my new blog, www.shoretowers.blogspot.com, Just add the last "s"! Separate from the campaign blog, which will remain up, my new blog will hopefully serve several purposes - to act as a watchdog, bringing in issues and ideas into a public forum that members of the board are welcome to view, and to foster a sense of community with discussions on adding value to this building in ways that satisfy all owners. 

I look forward to seeing what the board can do in this regard over the next year. If I can't see enough progress, you can bet I will run again. Next year, I hope for 6% of your vote. 

Thanks!
