Re-elect Lauer in Dundee Township

Posted April 02, 2009 11:00 pm

I am writing to support incumbent Paula Lauer's candidacy for Dundee Township trustee. Paula has done a great job as trustee over the past eight years, and the community would be greatly served by electing her to another term. Paula has a long history of public service, she was a West Dundee Village Trustee for 10 years.

Paula has worked to preserve the spirit of Dundee Township amid rapid changes. Paula is not against development, but is for balance. Paula is good at balance. She has forged strong relationships across party lines and across issue lines. She can be counted on for thoughtful, informed, fiscally responsible decisions and for courteous discussion of the issues.

Paula was "green" before it was popular and she respects the benefits of development and the need for fiscal restraint. We all owe Paula a vote of thanks and our vote.
