Redding Public Service:
In 2009, identified & created awareness of health & safety issues in Redding public schools leading to the establishment of the Redding Facilities Planning Committee.
Elected chair of the Redding Facilities Planning Committee, serving since 2009. Responsible for more than 15 individual capital projects at John Read, Redding Elementary and Joel Barlow, representing over $11 million, all delivered on time, on budget and to the highest industry standards, improving the health and well-being of both students & staff.

During my first year, I was successful in fully resolving a $2,200,000 State Construction Audit liability at no additional cost to the taxpayers of Redding. This liability originated during the Barlow Building Project of 2005. This liability resulted from a lack of required documentation and absence of state required competitive bidding.
