What are the top issues facing this district/municipality and how would you work to resolve it?

High water and sewer rates with an anticipated increase due to Phosphorus removal requirements by the State of Wisconsin. This has been a continual issue for the Village and if elected I would be working with the members of the Village Board to find solutions.

It is important to have people run as candidates for the Village Board to ensure election choices for the residents.
