In April, 2012 the boundaries for District 24 are changing and portions of the Districts currently represented by Supervisor Tom Stoebig and Supervisor Dave de Felice will become part of District 24.
Every 10 years when the US Census data is released, local governments adjust their political boundaries to reflect changes in population over that time and to better group communities of interest. Following the recommended process, the Dane County Board redefined many district boundaries to take into account these population
changes and communities of interest.
As the District 24 Supervisor since 2008, I am eager to earn the trust and gain the support for those new to District 24. As second-vice Chair of the Board, I currently work closely with both Supervisor Stoebig and Supervisor de Felice, and am pleased to have both of their endorsements for the spring election.
You will find that I am a strong advocate for
· protecting our most vulnerable populations
· supporting our parks and open spaces
· cleaning up our lakes
· keeping our communities safe
· continuing the Dane County waywhere we treat our workers with respect, value our families and work together to make Dane County the best place to live, raise a family and keep our economy vital and thriving with good paying jobs. Here is a link to the new District 24 boundary:

April 3, 2012 Election
As a longtime resident with a history of community service, I am proud to
represent District 24 on the Dane County Board.
In the last two years, I worked to:
· Protect our most vulnerable with a new drop-in mental health facility and maintain funding for the Dane County Job Center to connect unemployed residents with job opportunities;
· Bring fiscal responsibility while respecting our employees by renegotiating contracts to reduce health care costs saving taxpayers more than $1 million annually;
· Enhance our lakes and lands with the Clear Lakes Initiative, supporting the purchase of critical lands to protect endangered species and establishing permanent pharmaceutical drop-off locations to keep unused pharmaceuticals out of our landfill and water;
· Support public safety with continued 911 upgrades and fully staffing the 911 center, completing radio interoperability so emergency responders from all over the county can talk with each other, passing an ordinance keeping guns out of County-owned facilities and implementing efficiencies to the criminal justice system to save taxpayers millions; and
· Give Dane County voters a voice by putting a referendum on the Dane County ballot asking whether employees should have the right to collectively bargain for fair pay and safe working conditions.
I am honored to have the endorsements of County Executive Joe Parisi, County Board Chair Scott McDonell and Sheriff Dave Mahoney. I am also pleased to have the endorsement and confidence of the two Supervisors who have represented portions of the new District 24 - Supervisor Tom Stoebig and Supervisor Dave de Felice. Lastly, I have been endorsed by the Fire Fighters Local 311 as well as the Dane County Deputies Association.
During recent times we have come to realize just how important it is to know the values and priorities of those seeking elected office. As the District 24 Supervisor, I will strive to make my votes transparent and to always be accountable to my constituents. Dane County has much to offer to all of us – a healthy environment, strong local economy, a variety of parks and open spaces, safe communities and support for our most vulnerable.
As your County Supervisor, I will continue to work hard on your behalf. I take pride in promptly responding to constituent concerns and updating neighborhoods on County activities.
