What do you think is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction? "I believe the most urgent problem is the funding of the town government. We have made great progress to keep the town in good financial standing, but the future sources of revenue are in jeopardy while the demands for expenditures are increasing."

Why should voters elect you? "I have seen how issues have been handled in the past and have knowledge of what works and what does not work."
