Why are you running? I think it is important that the taxpayers money is spent wisely.
What is the top issue in your race, and how would you address it? As a resident and taxpayer in our village, I share many of the same concerns I hear others express. I am concerned that longtime residents are leaving due to decreased property values and fears of where our community is heading. I would like to work with other local officials and agencies to strengthen the building maintenance ordinances to help clean up the community.
Why should people vote for you? As a caring and compassionate wife of a firefighter, I know that community is important. I would like to make sure that the voices of my community are heard and fully represented.
