In 300 words or less, please explain why you are running for the position:

I have wanted to serve our town in some capacity for quite some time, but my work schedule has prevented me from doing so. The position on the Board of Assessment Appeals would allow me to serve the people of Oxford with a less cumbersome time commitment. My professional communication skills, listening skills, and easy going nature would be welcome in this position. I would hope that this learning experience might eventually lead to working on other Boards in the future.

There is a relatively new playscape at posypanko for town use. The one at Center School is fromRead More before QFS was built. The monkey bars are too small for the kids to even fit under. My point is if there is money to spend, and we want a playscape, how about fixing one that is used everyday.

why does it need to cost so much is what I wanna know... 138K...that's half of what I paid for myRead More house and land! Sounds like someones got 138K that's burning a hole in their pocket. Cant we find a less expensive playscape the kids would enjoy? or have it built by volunteers? maybe some of the very numerous contractors and builders living in Oxford would volunteer some time and skill to this project or better yet, some of these out of town builders who are throwing up McNeighborhoods in town would like to kick in some time and materiel for this? Heck If they wanna build here in town, they can start with a playscape..no?

How about lowering taxes for once. Or not making the people that were screwed by a croupt townRead More offical pay the debts that the town says they now owe. Why not run a surplus or add to rainy day fund. Why do we as the town of oxford need to spend it just because its there? Let's rethink this plan there are plenty of parks and we cn find a different way to fund this one. Or here's a novel idea let's get garbage pick up for the town.
