Devin Berke | Board of Assessment Appeals

Picture

​Education
BSBA Accounting, Western New England University 

What inspired you to run for local office?
I am running for Board of Assessment Appeals because  the property revaluations in town often present anxious times as residents await the new town budget and mill rates. I want to make sure that the appeals process is unbiased, informative and that the decisions are made as a direct result of the evidence presented at each appeal.  ​
Bio and Qualifications 
My career has included Public Account, Assistant Controller (Fortune 500), Owner- residential and commercial construction, Project Manager/Sr. PM (Heavy Civil Construction for Private Utilities and municipalities), General Manager - Construction for national specialty services.  My career in public accounting, residential and commercial construction and construction management, along with a passion for those who selflessly serve their community have prepared me to step up from the Alternate position to a full voting seat on the Board of Assessment Appeals.
Why should someone vote for you?
Because I will serve our community, not as a part of local political cronyism, but as a newer community member invested in our towns political health and the democratic process. ​
What’s your favorite place in Old Lyme?
Champlain North & South Open Spaces for hiking and Great Island boat launch for sea doo access.

Volunteer Activities
Old Lyme Board of Assessment Appeals Alternate (currently)

What do you want voters to know about you?

What do you like to do in your spare time?
Hiking New Hampshire 48 4,000 footers, scuba dive the world and sea-doo exploration in New England.
What is something not many people know about you?
I love Scuba Diving with sharks.

What is your favorite book?
