WE DID IT!

The election is over and it’s clear that the citizens of Windsor Hills want more involvement in county affairs. I achieved the highest percentage of votes of all three supervisor candidates.

I promised you would be more involved in county affairs, and I am ready to make good on that promise.

A new county-wide organization is being formed that will have the same purpose as the one I formed two years ago but with wider participation and support. The group is called Common Sense and will be accessed via its website and through various brochures/announcements that will be forthcoming. An absolute requirement for the group leadership will be equality of all views, political or otherwise. Citizens must feel comfortable that their support of the organization will incorporate their opinions. All groups and individuals are encouraged to join Common Sense and ensure their opinions are made known to county leaders. Watch for the website!

At a celebratory event recently (see video), Senator Ralph Smith presented me with an American flag, showing his support for my philosophy of managing taxpayer opinions and tax payments. This certainly had a profound effect on me personally and greatly bolsters my position as a citizen advocate.

My investiture will be December 18th at Court Room 4 of the Salem Court House at 10:30 a.m. All of you are welcome.

I deeply appreciate the confidence Windsor Hills citizens have shown in my ability to represent them. I will do so as a fellow citizen with the same concerns as most citizens.

However, I won’t think of everything; therefore your communications are very important. Please let me know your concerns via this website e-mail address. I will also have a county e-mail address by January.
