1.) In your opinion, is the current Council managing the affairs of the city efficiently? Why or why not?

As a sitting Councilman, I will say that this is the goal. City staff does an excellent job at preparing the information needed ahead of each meeting. I do the work necessary to take that information and come prepared to work efficiently.

2.) What is the biggest issue facing the City of Liberty Lake?

Our city is experiencing growing pains. Liberty Lake is highly sought after, and with good reason! Those of us on the Council are tasked with managing that growth, while maintaining a hometown feel and sense of community we all love. We are accomplishing that goal and I'm excited to continue serving after winning the election in November!
