Keven Mahner for County Supervisor
I'm running for Oneida County Supervisor District 11, Crescent Wards 1 and 3 because I have witnessed the abuse of power and non transparency. I believe the supervisor position should listen to the people and work for the people on their views and ideas, even if they differ from mine. One cannot vote on emotions, they must base it on fact and what the majority of the constituents want. County employees should not be afraid to lose their jobs for speaking up about concerns they have within their departments.
Affordable and safe housing is an issue that impacts the growth and development of the economy. We need to work together to find common sense solutions on this issue. I would also like to see more emphasis put into substance abuse and mental health. There are far too many people struggling with these issues in our community. Lastly being in the Emergency response field, is a huge problem with our radio communications. Its becoming extremely difficult to communicate clearly and effectively, Minutes and seconds count, and if we cannot communicate effectively, many minutes and seconds are wasted and to the injured that can mean life or death. Wasteful spending of taxpayer dollars must come to an end!
I'm currently the Chief of the Crescent Volunteer Fire Department. I have been on the Fire Department for 15 years, and have served as Chief for the last 9 years. I am a veteran of the United States Army with an honorable discharge. I'm also an Eagle scout and was an Assistant Scoutmaster. I graduated Rhinelander High School in 1988. After a life changing accident, I went on to achieve a degree in Human Services and currently work as a youth counselor and mentor. I have been sober for 27 years, and help to mentor and counsel those affected by alcohol and other drug abuse. I feel that abuse of power in a leadership role is detrimental to all involved. One must learn to follow before he can lead. One must be open minded to new ideas.
As Supervisor for Crescent, I will post to the community using both social media and the paper of informational town hall meetings. Residents of Crescent can come and voice their opinions on certain topics affecting both the township, as well as the county. I strongly agree that if communication breaks down then the total mission is jeopardized, and through proper Q & A sessions we can build a strong communication relationship.
