County commissioners manage a large workforce from many departments. They also work with other government entities, community leaders, businesses, civic organizations and the many residents with various problems or interests. Fighting with people seldom gets good results. Working with others to better understand the issues and options requires attentive listening and effective collaboration. Steve Lockwood listens and collaborates. He manages effectively and openly.

Steve is is not interested in partisan political fights. He is focused on the issues that shape Bonner County’s future:

He will address the challenges of growth with careful planning and management to assure that private property rights are respected.

Steve has the experience to help find solutions to the shortage of housing that is affordable.

He will work to see that our schools receive the funding they need to be the best.

He will ask the right questions from the developers of the proposed smelter (and others) to assure Bonner County has clean air, clean water and property values that do not plummet.

Steve supports the full implementation of the Idaho Panhandle National forest plan. It will help bring good jobs and common sense management and protections to our public lands.

Steve has the management experience, open attitude and willingness to ask the right questions. He listens to people and as commissioner would make a positive difference for the future of Bonner County. Vote for Steve Lockwood, he will work for all Bonner County residents. Steve is right for Bonner County!
