I have outlined areas of policy I will fight for, as
well as areas I will fight against as your Township
Clerk:
- I will fight to get our fair share of economic
development opportunities and help create new jobs
in our area
- As a candidate for Township Clerk
I believe that the top 3 concerns for Kinross are jobs, jobs, and jobs. As a small business
owner and experienced public servant, I understand
that government does not create jobs: businesses
create jobs. However, I believe it is the
responsibility of our Township Board to create
a favorable business environment by limiting
government and lowering taxes, and that businesses,
with the appropriate cooperation and promotion by
the Township, will come here to thrive and
grow.
- A favorable business environment in Kinross would encourage and permit existing
businesses to expand and attract new businesses.
With lower taxes, new business ventures would have a
greater chance of creating jobs and prospering.
- I will fight to cut costs and create a more
efficient government.
Elected officials must be mindful of the
responsibility they have with regards to public tax
payer monies. Whether it is at the Township level,
County level, State level or Federal level, elected
officials must be kept in check on their spending.
Unauthorized expenditures and budget busting
irresponsible fiscal policy must be addressed
through the election process.
- I will go the extra mile to promote Snowmobiling
tourism and safety
- I believe in a transparent Township Board. As
your Clerk, you will never have to
wonder where I stand. I will stand with you. My door
will always be open to every resident of our
Township and I will be present in our community for
regular meetings and other events. I pledge to
always be responsive to your needs and respectful of
your ideas.
- I will request an immediate improvement of
Township internet (website / information) services
allowing citizens increased timely access to
county information. What scares me the most is
what we do not know about the Township Board.
- I will hold regular office hours at my own
expense to serve residents
- I will work with both Republicans and Democrats
in Chippewa County to address funding and service
issues.
- I will work to raise revenue, without raising
taxes!
