Top three priorities
To get the town out of debt, keep taxes as low as possible, and help to maintain a safe and prosperous town for the residents.
Why are you running?
I have always been active with the town and would like to continue. I like living here and would like to do my part for the community.
What is the biggest challenge facing your community? The biggest opportunity?
I think the biggest challenge is taxes. Much of those challenges are due to the school budget. We need to find a way to balance both.
If you could change one thing about how your community functions, what would it be and why?
Regarding town functions, I would like to see the town clerk position changed from elected to appointed.
Do you support more development in your community? Why or why not?
I do support development, both residential and business. We need this for our tax base.
