Position Papers
Position and Philosophy as a candidate if re-elected
Recreation is a business held at a public level that does not follow the usual practices one would find in the business community. It is a field that is full of special interests, whether that be individuals, swim,soccer, baseball, football or equestrian clubs. All compete for the same support from their Park District with requests for space, time, funds or facilities, and all expect full attention from their Board and park staff.
