Other public or political offices held, and when
In previous years I have served as precinct committee person and I have been on the Linton Township Advisory Board since the late 1990's.
My main function is reviewing and approving the annual township budget and authorizing major expenditures.
Another one of my priorities is maintaining fire and EMS services for our township. I hope to recruit additional volunteer firemen. We have a beautiful Township and I plan to work toward providing the residents the best quality of life and keeping a fair tax rate while providing the best service possible.
Approving the annual township budget;
providing the best fire protection and EMS service within our budget; setting reasonable tax rates and authorizing major expenditures; reviewing the township trustee’s financial reports; approving contracts, and setting salaries for township employees.
I welcome all opinions and questions. I have spent my entire life in Linton Township and I care deeply about out Township. Residents are welcome to email me or call with any questions or concerns.
My vision for our township is to increase community knowledge and recruiting additional volunteer firemen. As a current board member we are hoping to build a new firehouse and community building on the Pimento school property. This will entail a lot of fund raising, and grant writing along with listening to the residents opinions and needs.
