Through the years I have volunteered in thi� community to help make Roseville a better place to live and play in, and I would like to continue that. There are many challenges we have in our community dealing with our parks, facilities, and programming. Budgetary constraints, maintenance, park, and programming issues need to be dealt with in a responsible manner. These are issues I want to continue to work with. The role of the Parks and Recreation Commission: I feel that the role of the Parks and Recreation Commission is to gather information �zoan Roseville residents on what they would like to have in their community, and to see if they have ideas on how to better maintain what we have, or how to raise funds to give us what they feel the community lacks. It is the Commissions role to work with the Parks and Recreation Department to help problem solve the above issues and make recommendations to the City Council on what the Commission feels are appropriate and responsible actions to better our Community.
