  1. My priorities would be to go over our land use comp plan and zoning plans that are current at the time of taking office, to make sure the citizens are being represented equally and properly according to our Constitution. To seek out local government overreach and correct it. To bring government back to the people as it was intended. To lessen the impact of government on the people with less regulations.
  2. A. The lack of representation of the people.

B. Property rights versus managing new growth.

C. Inflation and how it's going to affect the county budget. Our inflation is going up 3-4 times faster than our property taxes can be raised.

  1. A. We need to bring government back to the people. Our elected representatives work for us, we are their boss. It seems that its just the opposite these days, government dictating to the people what they can and cant do.

B. We need to responsibly manage our rural areas without compromising our individual constitutional rights. Existing citizens should not bare the financial burden of upgrading our infrastructure to accommodate new developments.

C. Budget cuts, maybe a county yard and mechanic to work on and service the fleet of county vehicles and equipment, such as road and bridge department does. use more volunteers to provide services where possible.

  1. With the influx of new development, we may have to impose responsible impact fees to new development. We need to be careful on how to implement them though so that they can not be abused in the future. Like I said earlier, it should not be the financial burden to the existing citizens to accommodate the new development.
  2. No. I see government growing too big. They no longer represent the People. It seems they have become the dictator, and not the servant. Government was designed by our forefathers to be limited in its responsibilities. I will also do everything possible as commissioner to protect our county from unconstitutional mandates and laws.
  3. I believe the most critical issue in front of us is the movement to instill socialism in our country. Look how our nation has changed in just the last few years. Our FBI used to hunt down communists, now they hunt American patriots. If I’m elected as commissioner, I'll do everything in my power to preserve our constitutional republic in our county, and will help our state representatives to do the same for Idaho. We are at a turning point to to either save this nation, or participate in its downfall.
  4. I’m going to refer back to question 6. I believe the socialist movement to destroy our republic, even at our county level, is not being addressed. We, the people, need to get actively involved now more than ever to take back our country and preserve its freedoms and liberties. As without our freedoms and liberties, what else matters?
  5. I think my harshest criticism would come from the left, since I’m such an advocate for standing for our freedoms and liberties. It’s pretty simple on how I’d respond to this, as I’m a proud American who has taken the oath to protect and defend our Constitution.
  6. Have you ever been arrested for a crime, and if so what was the charge? No
  7. I want to bring government back to the people, limited, responsible government by the people. I’ve been a volunteer of many successful non-profit community organizations for 23 years including Bonner County Sheriff Search And Rescue, Panhandle Preparedness Expo, Boy Scouts, and Northside Fire. I’ve founded multiple community groups such as Sandpoint Independence Day 2020, 7 Bravo Militia, 7B Volleyball Club, FACLU (Freedom And Civil Liberties Union), and my local community watch on steroids group, all out of love for my community, that I’d like to continue as your county representative. Actions, not words. Freedoms and liberties.
