Why should Voters Elect You? Avon Lake and its Utility continue to grow. Because of the interdependence between City government and the Utility, it is important to elect people who believe in shared efforts between both entities. Enhanced information sharing is particularly important now as we face large credit and capitalization needs to meet EPA standards. I have the experience to encourage teamwork between people to build joint policies and strategic plans. I would be honored to serve you on the Board of Municipal Utilities.
