He has served on the Conservancy Board for over ten years, instrumental in creating the 11th Historic District, saving the Shotgun House, landmarking Chez Jay, and recently restoring the Church in Ocean Park.
Mario’s presidency succeeds Tom Cleys’, who served as President for the last five years, successfully transitioning the Conservancy from an all-volunteer community organization to a non-profit with a paid executive director and staff to pair with its energetic volunteer base. Tom is now the Treasurer, spearheading the Conservancy’s fundraising efforts. We thank him for his hard work, leadership, and dedication as President.
A note from Mario:
I am eager to lead the Conservancy in the middle of its third decade and look forward to increasing funding, tripling our nominal 300-person membership, and collaborating with community organizations doing crucial, parallel preservation work. I look forward to meeting and collaborating with everyone who loves preservation. Thank you for your support!
