THE ISSUES

Since I started serving as your Douglas County Commissioner for District 1, I have not done this alone. Together, we have worked hard to make a positive impact in our community. I would be honored to continue working on those initiatives and many others for another four years serving you. The following are a few key priorities for my next term.
