How He Governs

Three Rules Steve Votes By

A simple test for every county vote: put people first, ask whether it can be done for less, and keep government open and honest.

Three rules Steve votes by:
These are the standards Steve brings to budgets, building plans, and every board vote.
01
Let’s put people first.
  • Protect our services
  • Hire and retain the best and brightest employees
02
Can we do it for less?
  • Square, lean buildings are cheaper to build because the design, labor and materials cost less. And lean buildings are cheaper to maintain.
  • Long term solutions over short term patches.
03
Is this open, honest government?
  • Keep the politics out and work with everybody. No party games.
  • Do what’s best for all residents.

Outagamie County Supervisor
Dear Neighbor,

I grew up in a small, rural town of about 200 people, Burnett, Wisconsin. I learned the values of hard work and integrity. We treated each other with respect and everybody was your neighbor.

After graduating as a Horicon Marshman, I went to school at UW Oshkosh. I studied public administration and pre-law. I developed a great respect for the honor of being in public service.

I love the Fox Valley. Over 20 years ago I decided to call it home. And I was proud to buy my home in Grand Chute.

I enjoy working on my house and yard. I am an avid gardener and I always have extra tomatoes. Homeownership has been a rewarding part of my life.

I'm a cancer survivor. I try and live life to the fullest and never waste opportunity to be brave. I try new things, love to travel, and say I love you to those that are close.

I'm a fisherman. I love all fishing, but my favorite is being out on the ice. And what beats a Wisconsin fish fry?

I'm a dog dad. I love my boys. (I love cats too!) It's true what they say, you don't rescue them, they rescue you.

I spent my life in construction and construction sales. I'm experienced in accomplishing projects on budget and cutting unnecessary costs with great results. I bring this experience every day to the Outagamie Board of Supervisors and I have a solid voting record I stand behind. I am running to continue serving my neighbors.

What Steve Stands For

Issues

County government is about local results, not national politics. Here is what Steve is actually working on for Grand Chute.

Fiscal Responsibility
Protecting taxpayer dollars at every vote.
County budgets should be built on needs, not wants. Steve believes every line item should be able to answer one question: what does this deliver for residents? When budgets do not meet that bar, he votes no.
  • Levy discipline and long-term debt management
  • Line-item scrutiny, not rubber-stamp votes
  • Transparent budget process for residents
  • No fee increases without service justification
Steve Says
"Nobody has fought harder against tax increases. I have voted against more spending than any other county supervisor."
Roads and Infrastructure
Roads that work.
Grand Chute residents deserve roads that are maintained on schedule, not patched in an election year. Steve uses his Highway Committee seat to push for long-range planning and accountability.
  • Preventive maintenance over reactive patching
  • Litter clean up and weed maintenance
  • Salt waste reduction
  • Highway safety
Core County Services
World class outcomes for our residents.
Recycling and solid waste, parks, Sheriff's department and Brewster Village are the basics residents count on. Steve scrutinizes costs behind these services to make sure they stay efficient while demanding world class outcomes for our residents.
  • Modern public safety and 911 services
  • Long-term care facility where individuals are respected
  • State of the art solid waste and recycling facility
  • Clean and user friendly parks and green spaces
Open Honest Government
A supervisor that fights for Grand Chute.
Grand Chute deserves local leaders with the utmost integrity. Steve believes county government should work for the people.
  • Streaming county board meetings
  • Ensure public speaking times at meetings
  • Holding supervisors accountable for meeting attendance
  • Responding to all constituent concerns
