1.Planning (traffic) 2.Planning (parks and open space) 3.Planning (commercial areas) As you can see I am playing to my strong suit. What I have learned as a planning commissioner will help the council as a whole. I will have a respected voice.

Being on the Planning Commission has given me some insight on the city finances but to be honest until you sit in a councilman chair how could you say what city should do or not do. As a business owner over the years we have set a realistic budget and work hard to stick to it.

The time has come I have been in training on the planning commission for over 10 years. This is the next step. To help guide the city to become a place where people can live, work and play. To be proud to say when asked "I am from Bonney Lake"

Lived in the Bonney Lake area for over 35 years. Married for over the 36 years to my lovely wife Lori. Raised two lovely daughters and have two lovely granddaughters. All in Bonney Lake! I have been active in how Bonney Lake has grown (not all perfect). Being on the city council would even give me a bigger say in what is going to happen in the future.
