The single most pressing issue facing our town/district is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it.

The abandoned real estate has been neglected and overlooked on all levels. I have numerous plans how to generate unlimited sources of income for the Town and District.

What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?

I feel that we both have similar strengths and best intentions for our beautiful District. However I have been from almost every mountain peak to wave peak and Stratford fits perfectly in the middle as my home. It deserves the very best (schools, parks, facilities, entertainment) for us as well as visitors from near and far to enjoy what each and every one of us love.With my experience and extensive sales background I believe Stratford has the resources and potential for greater success than it ever has.

List other issues that define your campaign platform:

Making District 1 the Cleanest District in the Country

8 years of volunteer litter removal across Our Town and Beautiful Country

Professional events

The best advice ever shared with me was ...

"Do your very Best"

What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions?
