* Limited government,
* Fiscal responsibility, and
* Good stewardship of our historical, cultural, and natural resources.

It is my belief that good government begins at the local level, and the decisions made by Town Council affect all of us on a daily basis.

We must also examine every project to understand not only the immediate cost, but the long term operational and maintenance cost as well. In light of those two overarching themes, I have three priorities:

  1. Encourage responsible economic and community development
  2. Reduce traffic congestion
  3. Keep focus on the decisions made by CCSD that affect our schools
