What is the most important issue facing Chaffee?

I don't think there is just one issue more important than the other. Everyone needs to work together to fix the issues that we are faced with.

What in your education or background makes you qualified for this office?

Working for another local goverment I think gives me a little insight from many different perspectives.

Why are you better qualified than your opponent(s)?

I dont know that I am any better than my opponent. If he were to win, I am sure he would do his best also.

How should Chaffee fund basic services in the slumping economy?

Well, you have to look at the city budget to see if there is any wastefull spending and so on and look to see about how to increase revenue.
