Everyone deserves to be treated with respect—whether you work for the County, speak at the podium, or simply call Moab home. Listening and engaging perspectives from all sides, I will ensure decisions are made with civility, transparency, and care for the whole community. If elected I am to:

• Trust the recommendations of our appointed boards not supersede their decision-making power

• Train and hire for administrative literacy within the County

• Facilitate consistent communication and collaboration between the City and County

• Trust in the results of expenditures, studies, and investments that we make

• Make sure residents are more thoroughly up-to-date on upcoming votes, workshops, and issues in the pipeline. We aren’t short on ways to communicate but the County owes its residents communication that meets us where we’re at.

Our community is growing quickly, but it should not come at the cost of what makes Grand County home. I will work to protect our landscapes, rural character, and local values while supporting a stable, sustainable economy. If elected, I aim to:

• Augment monitoring of existing wells throughout the Valley to inform water policy and growth

• Make sure we have the resources to support growth before it is approved

County decisions should be grounded in clear priorities and honest accounting. I will ensure our spending is transparent, understandable, and focused on the services and needs that matter most to our community. If elected, I will:

• Work with County Departments well before finalizing the budget to ensure that we limit out-of-budget expenditures

• Find ways to save where we need to, e.g. storm water mitigation
