On the Issues
What is the most urgent problem facing your jurisdiction?
The most important issue facing Loudoun County is growth and development. How and where we grow determines the future for Loudoun. Growth determines the county's needs for everything: schools, roads, police, libraries, social services, transportation, fire and rescue. We must ensure that growth is created for the benefit of the taxpayer, not at the cost of the taxpayer. Development must pay its fair share of infrastructure costs. How we grow determines the number of jobs and which type of jobs will come to Loudoun County. Loudoun County is a great place to live, work and raise a family.
Why should voters elect you?
Four years on the board and three years on Town Council. Sound judgment and ability to work with others to solve county and town issues.
