CNN Money Magazine announced Olathe as #13 in the Top 25 Best Plces in America to Live -- 2006. Kudos to not only the city government and elected officials, but to Olathe's wonderful citizens that have continued, year after year, to perosnally commit, build, and establish a city of pride.
Olathe has been my home for the past 35 years. During that time, I have raised five children and appreciated the safety and excellence of our public schools. Although having the distinction of the most rapid of any city in the state, Olathe continues to maintain an utmost quality of life embraced with traditional family values. I am proud to call Olathe my home, and you, my friend and neighbor.
The greatest privilege of my life is being your elected State Representative for the 15th District. I am committed to forging ahead in helping build an economic development and business environment that will guarantee good, high paying jobs for our citizens. Improvements, or problems, can be remedied temporariliy or for the long term. I will continue to make decisions based on what is best not only for today, but also for the future. If our children and generations to come can't trust us, whom can they trust?
It's our move. We can do it together.
