Main
Priority |
| To
have a balanced County government that is fiscally responsible and
attentive to the needs of the citizens often on the fringe of
society due to economic, physical or cognitive issues. |
|
Most
important Goal |
| Every
individual needs to serve others and each of us has a unique
capacity to offer our service. For me, it is in the area of helping
those who need assistance due to a disability. Physical and
cognitive disabilities can be due to accident, disease or age – the
nature of the disability doesn’t matter. What is important is that
many people with disabilities need someone who can advocate on their
behalf. Being a member of the Ozaukee County Board of Supervisors
provides a way to offer my service to the disabled citizens of
Ozaukee County and to support the County with the very serious
responsibility of meeting the needs for these citizens. |
