Letter Conflict of Interest?

February 19, 2025 by Staff Writer

COI on ConCom?

Might we be heading to yet another potential conflict of interest issue in Fairhaven? This one centered around Ms. Diane Tomassetti’s appointment to the Conservation Board. 

As a local realtor, and no doubt a lovely person, Ms. Tomassetti’s vocation as a realtor places her directly on a path of potential conflict. Kind of like having the fox guard the you know what. 

Fairhaven has very limited open space available. Since whatever coup happened at Conservation I wonder as to knowledge of those being appointed. Knowing from past occupants of that committee, and seeing the “manual” of rules/regulations, this panel is not for the faint of heart. We are in need of folks who are passionate about the committee on which they sit. There ought not be the slightest whisper of ulterior motive. 

Let’s do this one right Fairhaven. 

Susan Spooner, Fairhaven
