Candidate Statement: My wife and I have been living in Avon for 36 years.  During that time, we raised a family and watched them and the city grow. 

After serving six years on Council, four as Council President, I am seeking a fourth term as Council-at-Large. 

The work is not done yet.  Growth will continue and it is important that people have a representative on Council that knows where we were and where we are going. 

If given the opportunity to serve again, I will continue to help grow the community with a common-sense approach that will enhance the progress that we enjoy today.
