I really care about our great city and need your support to accomplish my agenda. With your help, I hope to be elected on November 4 as Lake Forest's next City Council Member and I have formulated a list of core issues that are important to residents here in town:

1. Reduce Burdensome Regulations - I am a free market capitalist and believe reducing over-reaching regulation brings lower prices, better service and more competition that benefit both residents and businesses.

  • I would help increase cellphone coverage which is limited due to our strict municipal code. We need to use common sense to allow more concealed cellphone antennas to help increase reception.
  • Similar strict municipal codes regarding internet and cable providers restrain competition. We again need more freedom to foster competition to keep rates low.

2. Reduce Crime - Lake Forest has been recognized as a safe city in the past, but we can do better.
  • One example: I want to foster more communication by implementing policies to facilitate crime reporting to Lake Forest's home owners associations. This can help prepare residents and businesses to change their behavior so future crime decreases.

3. Enhance Traffic Flow - I want to improve traffic flow in our community by implementing the following initiatives.
  • Improve intersections (right turn pockets, dedicated left signals, etc.)
  • Synchronize traffic lights both within town and with our neighboring cities
  • Build new roads or expand existing ones
