This is my last chance to clarify any doubts about where I stand and how I would like to see Tyrone evolve in the next four years. 1st – Those of the town's staff that are reappointed by Council will be responsive to any concerns or issues presented. I will be actively seeking qualified replacements for those who are not reappointed. Help with procedures will be made as simple as law allows. 2nd – The majority who responded to the Comprehensive Study stated that they were not willing to pay for expanded sewage. I agree and support that position. 3rd – Overwhelmingly, citizens stated that they desire one acre buildable lots and were against smaller lots or multi-family housing. I fully support this concept and will endeavor to maintain Tyrone's small town atmosphere. 4th – I am very interested in assuring that Tyrone citizens remain safe. To this end, I will continue to fight for a second exit from Shamrock Industrial Park and will work with our surrounding cities and Fayette County to assure that a viable emergency plan is in place. 5th – I will provide the oversight and management required to assure that Tyrone's employees are the very best available and that they have the support and the training required to perform their jobs. 6th – I will provide Tyrone's citizens timely information to allow them to make inputs and/or to express their ideas prior to any changes. 7th – I will work with the State, County and surrounding cities to provide the best possible clean water sources by maintaining our streams and green space. 8th - I will review all of Tyrone's ordinances and guidelines and put them in a logical, dated order that will be available to any who need them. And 9th – I will be working diligently to assure that Tyrone receives their share of Special Option Sales Tax revenue to allow paving and repair of our roads needing improvement
Even though I have had over 40 years of management and administrative experience, this is my first entry into the political arena. I only wish to guide Tyrone towards the best possible environment through decisions that will match the desires of our citizens. It will be with the help of a viable Planning Commission and concerned Council that I will be moving Tyrone forward in the direction Tyrone's citizens' desire. Please vote Nov 6th.
