As Your Councilwoman . . . As part of the team responsible for creating the successful municipality of Palmetto Bay, I believe that we must continue to set the bar higher and be responsive to our residents as they voice their needs and concerns. As your representative, I have brought to the table the right balance of experience, skills, and dedication to serve the people of Palmetto Bay sucessfully. I am a longtime business owner and community activist, a devoted wife and mother, and an experienced educator and administrator. With proven leadership skills, I work hard every day to ensure this Village fulfills the original goals and promises set forth when we incorporated in 2002.
In 2006, I was elected Councilwoman because of my belief in the "People First Spirit of Incorporation". I believe that our residents are the most important aspect of our Village. Since I was elected Palmetto Bay has successfully
> raised the level of our quality of life
> improved our public safety
> created an outstanding park system
> improved our government services
> maintained a conservative fiscal policy
