__What is the most important issue facing Perryville? What can be done about it?__
I have talked to many current city employees that feel like they are not all treated equally. They feel as though there are different rules for different people. This is something that I strongly disagree with, the rules are the rules. This will be addressed if I am elected for this position.
__What in your background or education makes you qualified for this office?:__
I deal with the public on a daily basis with the job that I hold. I deal with all demographics, and I feel that I relate well to all of them. I have been in the healthcare industry for nearly 20 years, it is like second nature for me to listen to people and try to make their situation better.
__What infrastructure improvements would you like to see?__
The infrastructure is key to our community's survival. It is a huge responsibility for the city officials to make sure that it is maintained and kept up to date. This is our responsibility to continue the monitoring and updating of the infrastructure so that we can provide the best possible water, sewer, gas, and utilities for the citizens of Perryville.
