I have been a resident of Lakewood for 27 years, raised a family here, and earned a Master’s degree in geology from the Colorado School of Mines. I remain an active and concerned GMWSD customer who is currently completing a 3-year elected term on the GMWSD board.
I am proud of my first-term accomplishments, which include:
· Establishing a personal website to keep our residents informed on District matters, and I have challenged the District to do the same.
· Encouraging the City of Lakewood to assume its fair share of the responsibility for 3 pedestrian bridges that would have closed without city cooperation.
· Focusing attention on the importance of addressing imminent, long-neglected financial issues which are crucial to repair our aging infrastructure.
· Co-sponsoring a resolution to make our bidding process more transparent
· Continuing the fight against developers who use our district as a profit center for their own financial dealings located outside of our district.
You deserve someone who will listen to you and fight against outside interests. I will be that person, and I commit to serve with time and energy to protect our residents, safeguard our financial responsibilities, and protect our precious natural resources.
