The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:

Respect for choice and freedom of speech! This is present in the school board controversies, the city budget questions and the overall climate of discourse at this time.

Milford has 2 boards to assist the executive office of the Mayor in governing our beautiful 17 miles of coastline here. Both boards have 1 controlling party and no real discourse due to the imbalance.

We absolutely must have balance on these boards, and a red vote this round is truly our one hope for addressing many crucial issues.

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I have a unique style for bringing about compromise. 30 years of divorce mediation has trained me handling problem-solving in the face of disagreement.

Accomplishments:

My law practice itself assures my ability to do the job. My patience and compassion for all views is also key st this time.

Other issues:

Safety will always be first!!

Unbiased classrooms for our kids should be a given, and it is not!

Exclusivity means all views and ideas welcome, not just the ones that serve an agenda
