To the editor:
During a March 27 meeting of the Great Barrington Select Board, I abstained from voting on the town’s last available beer and wine license. I am not proud of that decision. As an elected official, my job is to represent the interests of my constituents and make decisions on their behalf. In this instance, I did not meet that responsibility. I apologize to the citizens of Great Barrington and to the broader community of elected officials for whom my action may reflect poorly. I take my role as a public servant seriously and will embrace the lessons learned.
