Question Title

* 1. Board Member: Lindsay Dill
A native of Erie, PA, Lindsay Dill is a Troy Hill resident interested in helping to maintain and improve the sense of place in the Troy Hill Community. Lindsay moved to Pittsburgh for college in 2008 and purchased a home on Straubs Lane in Troy Hill in 2017. The neighborhood’s proximity to social centers, peaceful nature, unique neighborhood layout, relative affordability, and bike-ability are what drew Lindsay to Troy Hill.

Since 2014, Lindsay has worked at local land conservation nonprofit Allegheny Land Trust, and is their marketing communications director; she also works as a freelance photographer for local media outlets and nonprofits. In her free time, Lindsay enjoys hiking, biking, climbing, foraging, and playing fetch with her cat. 

Lindsay has attended Troy Hill Citizens meetings over the years, and is motivated to become involved now that she has a few years in the community under her belt and has recently participated in an RFP review committee for Troy Hill’s historic firehouse. Her dream for Troy Hill is to see its main street fill with businesses that meet community wants and needs so that residents find themselves connecting with  neighbors, meeting their needs within walkable distance of their homes, and supporting local commerce

and third places. She also hopes to see the community prioritize affordable housing options and sustainable steep slope protection.
