Experienced:  Two years on the village Planning Board. Nine months as chair of the 2006 Comprehensive Plan Committee.  Almost four years as a Village Trustee.

Does his homework:  Many of the pages on this website illustrate the kind of homework I do.  See for example:

• Police cost study  (.ppt file)

• Tax comparison study

• Presentation to 2011 Comprehensive Plan Committe of village benchmarks

• Dissolution background research

• Annexation math

• Budget charts to show where our money comes from and where it goes

• Discussion about creating water and sewer districts

• Letter on dissolution

Please explore this website for other analyses and reports.

Has a plan:  I have identified six priority goals for the village.  This is not the complete range of my goals, but it provides a brief overview of the direction I propose for the village.

Loves dogs:  While I take my village work very seriously, I try to not take myself too seriously. I sometimes need to pause and count my blessings.  One of which is a chance to live in Potsdam, with many friends and neighbors who will smile with you.  (Not to mention our dogs Ralph (top) and Sophie!)
