Legislative Accomplishments

Much has been achieved through the partnership of our community and our local government during my term. As your representative, I am pleased to have played a role in:

  • Protecting precious open space and reducing population densities in areas slated for development
  • Promoting a plan for adequate public facilities - the County should not proceed with the development of plans until we are certain we have adequate support facilities for growth - including schools, roadways, power, water, and more
  • Improving our public education system - legislation I sponsored provides monthly accounting to document the use of county funds, insure fiscal responsibility, and allocate more money directly into the classroom
  • Fostering economic and employment development in the County

  • Taking a lead in tax reduction
