The Land Trust is pleased to announce that Carol Kowalski was elected President and Bancroft (Banks) Poor was elected Vice President at a recent Board meeting. Continuing officers are Nora Frank as Treasurer and Ann LeRoyer as Clerk. While all Board members are elected by ALT members at the Annual Meeting, the officers are elected by the Board members themselves.
We extend our great thanks and deep appreciation to Chris Leich who served as President since 2019, and to Clarissa Rowe who is a founding member of ALT and has served as President or Vice President for many terms over the past 26 years. Both of them are remaining members of the Board and will continue to share their valuable knowledge and expertise in our work.
Carol Kowalski is also a founding member of ALT and a long-time Arlington resident. She served as the Town’s Director of Planning and Community Development from 2009 until 2016 and is now Assistant Town Manager for Development in Lexington. Banks Poor, also a long-time resident of Arlington and ALT Board member, recently retired after many years as Assistant Treasurer at Mass Audubon.
