Letter To Tewksbury From Select Board Candidate Lindsey Dunlevy Tosto

The following was submitted to Tewksbury Patch by Lindsey Dunlevy Tosto

Dear Tewksbury,

I hope this letter finds you well. My name is Lindsey Marie Dunlevy Tosto,
and I am writing to introduce myself as a candidate for the Tewksbury Select
Board in the upcoming April 5th election. I am excited to have the opportunity
to serve the community that has meant so much to my family and me.

I am a third-generation Tewksbury resident who graduated from Tewksbury
Memorial High School in 2012. I went on to attend the University of New
Hampshire, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration
with a concentration in Accounting and Finance. Shortly after graduating, I
began my career in public accounting at Ernst & Young in their tax group,
where I also completed my Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license. I have
since moved on to my current firm, Standish Management, as a fund accountant
working with private equity and venture capital funds.

In 2022, I was fortunate to buy a home in Tewksbury with my husband, where
we now reside with our rescue dog, Brydge. We are both thrilled to be back in
town and are looking forward to growing our family here for years to come.

My motivation to run for the Tewksbury Select Board stems from my deep
desire to give back to the town I proudly call home. Having grown up here, I
understand the value of a strong, vibrant community, and I’m eager to apply my
experience in finance and strategic planning to help guide the town’s future. I
am passionate about improving the town’s water infrastructure by working with
the Department of Public Works (DPW) to develop and implement a plan. I am also
focused on ensuring the creation of open and green spaces for families of all
ages to enjoy for years to come. I will work with our delegation at all levels
to make sure Tewksbury’s needs are effectively represented. I am committed to
aiding our senior citizens by working with the town to bring back the Senior
Citizen Tax Work-Off Program. Additionally, I will continue supporting our
schools and ensuring Tewksbury remains a great place for families to live,
work, and thrive. I want to be a voice for all residents, advocating for smart
growth, fiscal responsibility, and the preservation of the quality of life that
makes Tewksbury special.

Tewksbury has given me so much, and I am ready to give back. With your
support, I will bring thoughtful leadership and a commitment to making
Tewksbury an even better place to live, work, and raise a family.

I’d love for you to join me at Brothers Sports Bar & Grille on Thursday,
February 27th, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM for my campaign kickoff! To learn more

Together, we can build a bright future for Tewksbury!
