As a lifelong Republican who is fiscally conservative, I will act as a good steward with our tax dollars by taking a cautious approach with budget expenses and will make sensible decisions that benefit our residents.
I'm going to be a watchdog against wasteful spending and ensure our hard earned tax dollars go to projects that make sense and improve our critical, existing infrastructure and public safety needs.
I strongly support our law enforcement and first responders who protect our health and safety throughout Flagler County.
I will continue to advocate for the resources needed to keep our county properly staffed with the Law Enforcement and EMS/Fire needed to keep it one of the safest counties in Florida.
I will push to preserve our quality of life for future generations by being mindful of our ecological environment with balanced growth. Recently, our county has experienced extreme growth that has harmed the community in many ways, impacting our quality of life and our taxes.
We need smart, well planned growth, which is not what we are currently experiencing.
We need to ensure we are following our land development code and not impacting existing residents communities with development that is inconsistent and not what we would want to see in our neighborhoods.
We need to focus on our existing infrastructure needs including: roads, water quality and stormwater protection. We need to ensure that we are protecting our tree canopies and the areas that we love and would never want to see destroyed.
I'm committed to finding long-term solutions for infrastructure needs. I'll advocate for state and federal funding as well as push for the county to seek more grant opportunities.
Most importantly, we need to make sure the existing residents aren't paying for this excessive growth we're undergoing.
Flagler County hosts a large, thriving, community of local farms. I've made a strong commitment to protect our local farms and support our local farmers. I'm proud to live in a community that supports agriculture and its economic importance in our county.
To further safeguard our beautiful county, I will champion for the preservation of our local wildlife corridor.
By being an active supporter and advocate for the arts, I will continue to work to ensure that Flagler experiences a cultural renaissance, which in turn, promotes quality of life and economic opportunities.
