Continuing forward with responsive leadership.

2011 Re-election Campaign

 

Welcome to my campaign website. I am running for re-election to Blacksburg Town Council. Election day is November 8th. In 2009 I pledged to "help preserve the quality of life we cherish in Blacksburg, as future growth occurs, and to keep citizen involvement as the centerpiece of an open, accountable town government." As an architect, I have helped bring good planning to a cooperative and effective Blacksburg Town Council.

Refer to my "Campaign Flier" on this website and read my "Re-election Announcement and Campaign Fundraising Letter" (pdf)  for highlights of my tenure on Council and future vision for Blacksburg. Also, browse this website for additional information.

Video links to Blacksburg Town Council candidate forums are posted below (Citizens First Forum, Sept. 14  and AARP Forum, Oct. 18). The League of Women Voters Forum is on Oct. 26th from 7 to 9 pm at the Municipal Building.

I need your help in this election. Consider donating to my campaign and/or volunteering. I will continue to work hard for you and your Town.
