What are two issues you think are important and how would you address them?
I see there being more than two important issues. 1.) The round-about/bypass of Route 202. I am currently undecided on whether the project should proceed. I would listen to public input combined with a review of the current project specifications. 2.) Filling critical vacancies in the Police and Public Works departments. I would use every resource available to select the best candidate. 3.) Road Repairs. Selecting the projects and contractors that will provide the greatest benefit to the town is essential. 4.) Spelling my name correctly on the ballot. Ballots with misspelled names will not be counted.

What are two issues you think are important and how would you address them?: Our tax rate is high, I would like to see for efficiencies in town government. We need more tax base, both residential and commercial. We have two large properties in town that a vacant. 1) the WW Cross building on Webster Street, and the St Patrick’s school property. We need to come up with innovative ways to repurpose both properties.
