Statement: I am running for Medical Lake City council because I believe that I have something to offer. I have lived in Medical Lake for 21 years and believe that it is a great place to live. The city government should encourage and help local small business. The city should be welcoming to visitors and encourage community events. Governmental entities should not complicate our lives. I believe in the analysis of available data before any decision is made. I will listen carefully to all sides of an issue and will render a decision based upon the relevant rules and regulations.
