Questions & Answers

1. What services do you believe should be considered basic and essential for the Village?

I believe basic and essential services include clean and safe streets and parks, a professional police and fire department, and council members who promote fiscal responsibility.

2. How would you balance the Village Budget?

Like any personal or business budget, I would ensure that expenses do not exceed revenue.

3. Citizen engagement is important to the health of local government. In what ways do you support citizen engagement?

I support citizen engagement in local government through participation in village council meetings. Information is also available on the village website to keep citizens up to date.
