Tina Hein Encourages Questions and Conversations
Tina Hein reserves time prior to her weekly Select Board meetings to chat with residents. On any Monday evening at 6 PM, residents are encouraged to meet Hein in the comfort of the Upper Town Hall conference room (also accessible by elevator). Hein invited me to visit with her recently, and I found her to be encouraging of questions and open to any conversation topics and direction.

Zoom into Board and Committee Meetings
While recently attending a “Select Chat” at the Senior Center featuring Ben Sparrell, Select Board Chair, I spoke to Millie Kampersal, long-time Holliston resident, about the ease of accessing Select Board meetings. She admitted that although she’d like to access some meetings, she didn’t know where to go for directions to do so. This short conversation with Millie made me think that there might be others who would like the process described for them.
