Biographical Information

What qualifies you for this position?

I am a Town of Barre resident. I also have been on the board for a little over 2 years. The top qualification for this position is understanding that my decisions and votes need to be for the general benefit of town residents.

What are the top three priorities that you see for your town?

Maintaining town roads. Keeping expenses as low as possible. Working with residents to allow them to do what they want as long as it does not hinder or interfere with other residents.

How will you work to meet those top three priorities?

Asking as many questions as I can think of is my basis of decision making. This election I am unopposed, therefore expect to win. That being said, I will begin a 2 year term in April. At this time I do not expect to run again. Anyone who is interested in being on town board, may feel free to contact me. I would be glad to give some info on what to expect and try to orient you on serving on the board. You must be someone who understands the board serves the town residents, and be willing to work to that end.
