McCann announces run for seat on Select Board

Jason McCann will be running for one of the open three-year terms on the Hull Select Board this May.

JASON MCCANN ANNOUNCED HIS CANDIDACY FOR THE SELECT BOARD THIS WEEK.

McCann is a former member of the planning board, zoning board of appeals and Community Preservation Committee. Additionally, he has been involved in a number of successful campaigns in Hull, including the successful adoption of the Community Preservation Act, the Save the Ferry campaign, and the initiative to restore the Fort Revere water tower.

“Now is the right time to run,” McCann said. “Hull is at a major crossroads, particularly given the appointment of a new town manager this year. Additionally, with a new governor of the Commonwealth and new sources of funding coming down from the federal government, we need select board members that are working hard to build state and federal relationships that will result in improvements for Hull.

“The list of work to be done is long, and will require a lot of leadership and individual effort – seawall and road repair; improvements to our electric, water and sewer infrastructure; supporting our housing needs; the restoration of the DCR’s Nantasket Beach Reservation and Fort Revere Park; the preservation of anchor public institutions like the Paragon Carousel and the Hull Lifesaving Museum; ensuring community resilience to climate change; and more,” he continued. “All of this work requires the dedication, time and effort of an active Hull Select Board. I am up for the task.”

McCann lives in Hull Village with his husband, Chad Wolfe. He has his own legal recruiting and career advising business, Gridline Search + Consulting. As a founding member of the Hull Pride and Friends of Nantasket Beach non-profit organizations, you can see him around town at one of the various social events that these groups put on throughout the year.

McCann has pulled his nomination papers from the town clerk and is working quickly to secure the necessary signatures to be placed on the ballot this May. For more information on his campaign, visit www.mccannforhull.com.
