Why are you running?

To keep helping the residents of Avon Township

In what ways would Avon Township benefit from your service?

In the past and hopefully future years to keep an eye on spending, but still help and promote Township services.

What is the biggest challenge the township faces and what should be done to address it?

The biggest challenge is to control deficit spending. It is one thing to cut levies, but then you have to cut spending or you will run out of money to really help the people of Avon Township.   
 
What do you think the township does well?

Helping those in need, but there is always room for improvements such as the bus service and letting the other communities know what we have to offer. 
    
What should be some of the township's priorities over the next several years?

Definitely expand the bus service, utilize existing properties the Township owns, and work more with the municipalities and Park Districts within Avon Township.
 
What else would you like voters to know?

As I have in the past, I want the voters to know I will be a good steward of the Township, because Township government is my passion.
