Issues
No Time for Politics with Kane County’s Budget
As chair, I may not have any vote except to break a tie, but the influence on how those votes are decided should not be made through the lens of partisan politics, but rather through knowledge, thought, and responsiveness to community input. Kane County’s budget requires a tactical approach that gauges the fiscal needs of the County while sensitively offsetting the tax burden of the County’s residents.
Time to Build Trust and Respect; Time for Collaboration
Now is the time that collaboratively, Democrats and Republicans, citizens and farmers, our businesses, industries and schools, county staff and elected officials, must work together to focus on the County’s future. It is time to ensure that all of our citizens are represented in leading Kane County.
