This information is provided by the candidate

I will bring my continued tradition of dedicated, hard work and fact finding to the Pleasant Hill City Council.

I will work tirelessly for economic vitality in Pleasant Hill. I will seek out methods to bring jobs and opportunity to our community as well as business while retaining our vibrant small town charm.

Growth and opportunity will help to solve some of the financial problems our city currently faces. I will also work to build a strong financial foundation for our future through sound, common sense decision making. As part of seeing to our future stability I will work for a long term, 10 year, budget plan giving us a platform for our future. I will work to balance the budget and resolve our current deficit issues.

I want Pleasant Hill to remain the quiet community I have known for much of my life. Crime is on the rise and I will take a "Zero Tolerance" approach. My experience in public safety gives me an invaluable understanding of the needs of our dedicated public servants within the police department and will see that they have the staff, training and tools to protect our community.
