Questions & Answers

1. How would you implement your top priority?

As always, the key priority is maintaining Wyoming as a highly desirable and livable community. For Council, I believe that the priorities for the next two years will be financial management and infrastructure maintenance. Sound financial management has helped Wyoming weather the recent recessionary storm. As we look ahead we need to continue to monitor our projected revenues, and carefully budget expenditures based on sound planning. We also have a need to maintain an aging infrastructure. Street re-paving, facilities upgrading, and equipment replacement are not "Hot Button" issues, but they need to be done. Public maintenance work, combined with private reinvestment is highly important in improving property values. Finally, we must maintain and improve the quality of the various programs we offer to our residents. We need to have the quality that people expect and desired.
