RA CEO Harry Lynch Resigns After 2 1/2 Years

The Reston Association announced today that CEO Harry P. Lynch has resigned after around 2 1/2 years leading the RA. Give us some good we-wish-Hank-well-in-his-future-endeavors blockquote, RA:

Reston Association CEO, Harry P. “Hank” Lynch, has resigned. The association’s Board of Directors was informed of the resignation this week. Lynch, who was hired in December 2018, said he has accepted another opportunity. Lynch’s last day with RA will be Sept. 3, 2021. 

“We all wish Hank well in his new endeavors,” said RA President, Caren Anton. “His leadership has been invaluable during his entire stay in Reston and especially during the trying times caused by the pandemic. Hank has provided a steady hand and brought new and innovative ideas to the table. He will be missed."

During Lynch’s tenure, the association significantly upgraded its IT security systems, remained fiscally sound and improved its customer service across the board. New measures were put in place to improve lake management and Covenants operations.

Lynch's hiring in late 2018 followed a nine-month vacancy following the resignation of former RA CEO Cate Fulkerson, who had served in the role since 2013. The RA Board will meet next week to plan for hiring his successor.
