Jonathan Hankin moved from Los Angeles to Great Barrington in 1995. He serves as a member of the Great Barrington Planning Board and is a real estate broker at Berkshire Property Agents. He is on the Board of the Berkshire Playwrights Lab.
When it was suggested that the Planning Board should advise the Select Board, the Assistant Town Manager was adamant that doing so would be a violation of the law.
I was struck by the notion that every dollar donated — in serving three goals —would effectively triple in value: supporting a local farmer, preserving our rural landscapes, and providing fresh, healthy food to community members in need.
