Forward Focus

It has been a while since I posted after the the last election.  I love this town and what everyone that lives here stands for.

While this summer is a bit crazy for those on the East side of town, look at it like this....Folks are investing in our town and we will begin to see more life around us.

Redevelopment raises the tax base-allowing your taxes from Osseo to remain in check.  Focus on spending, and increasing the teamwork of City Staff remains a focus with every staff transition.

All of us on the city council have listened, and a new Police Station is under construction. This will ensure that you continue to see low response times to medical emergencies (currently well under 5 minutes- as low as 1 minute much f the time), and consistent patrols to keep you family safe from the ever growing threat of crime.  Your Safety is of paramount importance to this city council.

Remember- as we saw a few elections ago- the future of YOUR city is one bad election/council away- be informed with your vote! Watch you city council meetings here- City Meetings

Most Single Family homes taxes from Osseo have DECREASED in Osseo for the past 5 years.  We desire to have new bodies, new business, and more traffic here.  Development is starting on the areas adjacent to Osseo with the primary destination being our Town.  We are finally moving forward- while careful focus is being had to keep the feel of Osseo the same.   Hang on folks - this will be a fun ride to take together!
