Citizen Engagement and Education

Every elected official has a duty to listen to the concerns of their citizens.  However leadership does not end there.  Good leaders also help educate and inform their constituents about the issues before them.  While serving on the Huntersville Ordinances Advisory Board (HOAB) I regularly heard concerns from citizens regarding town ordinances and worked to address them.  In addition, I consistently worked to inform and educate citizens and other board members on matters before the HOAB and produced a set of reference and training materials that were shared with elected and appointed board members.
