She will bring to the position considerable personal and leadership skills. She can listen, plan, and follow through to carry out the town’s business by a fair and open process. She is very capable of making a continuous review of the current and future needs of the town as directed by the charter. This is one of the most important functions of the office, as well as being in charge of the day to day operations. Her top priority in these difficult economic times will be to keep taxes under control keeping in mind that the time has come to expand our commercial tax base.

Julia has a long history of volunteer service to the town serving on the Recreation Commission as Chairman, Planning & Zoning, Wetlands, Economic Development, and the original Charter Commission. She is currently chairman of the Board of Assessment Appeals and a founding member of the Andover Historical Society. She was instrumental in the building of the Long Hill ball field complex and the new firehouse.

Julia Haverl and her husband Ronald moved to Andover in 1969 because they felt that Andover was a good place to raise their children, Christina Tamburro of Andover and Carl Haverl of California.

Your vote for Julia is a vote for good future prospects for Andover.
