1. What are your qualifications for office?
Previously served as Sharonville Councilperson and Treasurer. Minor in accounting in college and took numerous business law courses in law school. Previously attended Treasurer of Ohio training on fiscal policies. Am in my second term as Auditor - Office of the Sharonville Auditor annually receives highest rating by Ohio Auditor's office - a credit to the Deputy Auditor Amy Moore who is responsible for the day to day functions of the City Auditor as Deputy Auditor and Budget Director.2. What services do you believe should be considered basic and essential for the City?
Well maintained roads and sidewalks, trash pickup, police and fire protection, recreation activities and athletics.3. How would you balance the City Budget?
Don't use city funds for non essential services unless revenue from city income tax is there to support same. Do not even consider reinstating city property tax.4. What actions will you take to support clean air?
As City Auditor I have no control over this item. I don't say much at council meetings unless I have something worthwhile to say - so I do at least limit the amount of "hot air" I produce. I also do my best to keep it "clean"
