Lauzen is right for Kane chairmanship

In the Kane County Chronicle of Nov. 29, Kevin Burns was directly quoted as saying, “I think those who have a vested interest in Kane County will decide that this race is the most important one on the ballot this spring. Whoever wins the race is going to have the chance to set the tone for county government for years to come.”

As he runs for County Board Chairman, Burns obviously believes that those who are already financially benefiting by the high salaries and politician appointments in Kane County ought to continue with the status quo.

Sen. Chris Lauzen is running for county board chairman to reform all this “insider” establishment politics beginning with freezing the county property tax levy.

We have a qualified candidate for the chairmanship of the Kane County Board. Chris Lauzen will make the best chairman we have had in a very long time. Lauzen is a seasoned veteran of the wars on high tax rates. We are in need of Lauzen’s expertise on tax rates as our newly elected head of the county board.

The Kane County Chairman’s office has been a very expensive office to maintain. Lauzen will reduce the expense of the office from the start of his tenure. He also wants to freeze the tax levy in Kane County.

I have watched the price of Kane County government go up and up for years. I look forward to Lauzen’s conservative politics for Kane County. Both my wife and I have known Chris since his first run in state politics and have been proud of the stances he has taken in Springfield.

Lauzen is a man you can trust to be the chairman of Kane County. His background in accounting as a CPA is impeccable and he has no financial interest in Kane County on a personal level, only an interest in serving the taxpayers of Kane County. A vote for Lauzen for County Board Chairman is a vote for stability in Kane County.
