I am committed to maintaining my original mantra of focusing on programs and services that reflect "residents first." My three priorities are to maintain our one-acre single family zoning, uphold our Comprehensive Land Use Plan and to work with the other members of the Board of Aldermen to resolve any future budget issues.
I have had the privilege of serving as an alderman in Town and Country for a combined total of 10 years. During that time both Longview and Drace parks, with historic log cabins, were designed/developed based upon "residents first." Both parks continue to be treasured by one and all on a daily basis.
