"I
additionally owed approximately $25 plus interest for a missing property tax
payment in 1997, an amount which I believed had been paid through an escrow
account set up through my mortgage company. I recently paid this amount in full.
I do not owe any other local, state, or federal taxes or student loans. \n\n
I also have an unfavorable driving record (I assure you that this does \n not and will never include operating a vehicle under the influence of \n alcohol). I am now using public transportation. \n
As an elected official, I understand that I am and should be held to a \n higher standard. I am grateful to represent the people of Boston and will \n continue to work to meet that standard. \n
