Johnson will replace contention with respect

| September 26, 2024 1:00 AM

I am pleased to have the opportunity to cast my vote for Steve Johnson for Bonner County commissioner, District 1. Steve is a lifelong resident of Bonner County and an active member of our community. As an educator, farmer, library trustee, youth coach and in many more roles, Steve is a part of the community and knows its needs.

Steve realizes that people need to be heard, valued and treated with respect. One of his goals is to return those values to the board of county commissioners. Replacing the contention and disrespect recently displayed by commissioners to each other and the public would be one of Steve's goals.

Steve is cognizant of the rapid growth of the area and understands the need for a comprehensive plan that preserves our rural quality of life and embraces development that enhances the community. This includes improving roads and bridges and being sure that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely and to improve tax payer lives and the infrastructure of the county.

Steve will work to preserve your individual freedoms, including responsible gun ownership, and the way of life we all cherish in Bonner County. And he will do it with a smile!
