Goodnow brings optimism to the board

BRATTLEBORO — Ian Goodnow had quite the first year to serve on the Select Board.
“I don’t think I could have chosen a more challenging time to join the Brattleboro Select Board but I’m grateful I ran and was elected,” he said. “COVID-19, the global pandemic, created a number of new challenges that we had to face as a town and having an opportunity to be part of the leadership to address those challenges was a real honor and I’m really grateful for the opportunity.”
While COVID-19 will continue to be something to grapple with on many levels, Goodnow said he’s filled with “a deep sense of optimism” moving forward as the pandemic has forced creative thinking on issues and led to more people being engaged in town government. He said he feels the town can “capitalize on that energy” and “we can do really great things in Brattleboro.”
