Carter is true to her beliefs

Since I have lived on Long Lake, I have been impressed with Bonnie Thomson Carter. Bonnie has been, and continues to be proactive, in regards to protecting our open spaces, encouraging responsible growth, preserving our waterways and helping citizens to be involved and take charge in their communities.

Bonnie has helped residents get together with corporations and obtain funding or matching funds for projects too small for most governmental officials to deal with. Not only did she facilitate an unexpected partnership between Long Lake residents and Baxter, which resulted in a plan that helped the environment, but Bonnie also initiated a project and grant money to help the Grant Woods Forest Preserve property that minimized erosion and promoted the growth of native plants.

Bonnie treats all of her constituents in the same manner - keeping true to her beliefs and values. That is why I am voting for Bonnie Carter on Feb. 5.
