Letter to the editor

Published 6:35 am Wednesday, May 8, 2024

I am writing this letter in support of Michelle Kaseberg for Baker County commissioner. I have known Michelle for many years and she is the best candidate for county commissioner. She has lived and been involved in our community for her entire life. She brings a wealth of experience in finance and natural resources. She listens, makes sound decisions and will work on all the issues that affect the citizens of Baker County. She has no agenda and understands the many issues that our county faces. She will sit at the table with our federal and state agencies and thoughtfully present the county’s perspective and represent our citizens. She will not grandstand and walk out of meetings in protest. She will do the hard work, communicate effectively and get the job done.

Baker County needs a commissioner that is focused on the many issues facing our county. We need more family wage jobs, affordable workforce housing, a sustainable road system, treatment of addictions, adequate law enforcement and fire agencies and collaboration with our local cities and businesses. Michelle is the only candidate that brings these qualities. Please join me in voting for Michelle Kaseberg and bringing strong leadership to the county commission.
