Are there areas of spending that need to be curtailed? If so, what are they?


Reducing frivolous spending is one of the top priorities for the community. I have seen instances of arbitrary spending that lack proper oversight, and this needs to be curtailed.

Instead, I want to focus on transparency and accessibility for the elected officials.

While coffee with the board events are a great initiative, they may not be convenient for everyone, especially those with young children.

That's why I plan to introduce an easy-to-use online forum that makes it easier for residents to connect with the village board without any barriers. This way, everyone can have their voice heard and contribute to the betterment of the community.
