Tell us about your previous elected and/or community experience.
It’s my first time running.
Why are you running? What’s your motivation?
I’m running because of the board complete unwillingness to stay in a realistic budget any one can over spend then just say it’s only another 13.2 percent .instead of being proactive and planning ahead there reactive way of governess cost more with no transparency or accountability just try calling the office they say talk to your director who’s only available by email but does not respond to them then they vote for a raise up coming outrageous . How about a referendum guestion on ballot as well. Why not because we would say no you don’t deserve one because of there poor performance . Taxes accountability and transparency only happen though communication.
What are your top three issues?
What’s one “big idea” you have for your community?
