The single most pressing issue facing our (board, district, etc.) is _______, and this is what I intend to do about it: More businesses needed and lower taxes. I will fight to bring more business into Penacook to help the tax burden on the residents. Yes low income housing is needed but when you keep bringing in housing and no business then the tax burden is just going to get worse.
What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post?: I am for Penacook, he seems to be more for Concord. I will bring common sense to the city council.
If you are a challenger, in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency)?: He has had since 2013 as the councilor to make Penacook a better place but it has just gotten worse. He hasn't done anything to help the high tax burden, which is evident when you keep seeing houses in Penacook going up for sale.
