Why are you running? As a Trustee, I have interest in ensuring Pontoon Beach continues to be a great place to live through recreational and economic development.
What is the top issue in your race, and how would you address it? We are doing a great job keeping our community safe and clean. I would like to see this continue by voting to resurface streets as needed and adding sidewalks in heavy foot traffic areas.
Why should people vote for you? I have seen our mayor and current Board of Trustees do amazing things for our community in terms of economic growth. This includes bringing in warehousing facilities, restaurants, convenient stores, and community activities, such as Party at the Beach and Acoustics in the Park, all of which bring revenue and employment into our community. I want to continue this momentum, advocate for our community, and continue to be part of the team that makes Pontoon Beach a great place to live. I look forward to continuing to serve along with Terry Kreher, Bret Ware and the entire village board.
