Jeanne Harris

for Clark County Commissioner Dist. 2

Keeping Clark County sustainable and livable is good for all of us!

 

I’m Jeanne Harris and I love living in Clark County. I’ve raised my family here however I’m concerned about our livability, safety and the cost of government so I’m running for Clark County commissioner.

Under the current commissioners the county has seen tremendous growth … we all have new neighbors who we’re glad to welcome into our schools, places of worship, work places and in our neighborhoods. 

Too much growth too quickly, can cause a dilemma for us … traffic increases, schools become crowded and if not done carefully and thoughtfully can result in jeopardizing our livability.  The very reason so many have moved to Clark County.

I call it chaos planning … here, there and everywhere without a cohesive, pre-meditated plan that will enrich our livability… not destroy it.

We can grow and we will grow ...but we must grow smart.  If we don’t, we risk creating an unstable economy due to the imbalance of jobs and housing that can result in higher costs to citizen’s because it is less efficient to provide services, especially police and fire response. 

By growing smart we can reduce the cost of government and provide higher levels of service.

I’m endorsed by mayors, firefighters and police because they believe like I do that we need to

· Manage our growth by growing wisely, for a more cost effective use of tax dollars for police, fire, roads and transit

· Create a strong, sustainable new green economy that brings well paying jobs and contributes to keeping taxes low

· Take care of our kids with afterschool programs  by using the resources we already have to help them succeed in school

· Keep the agricultural piece of our economy vital by protecting our farmlands, open space, natural resource land and rural lifestyle

This time in Clark County is absolutely critical and not easy and it will take hard work and cooperation. It will take new, strong leadership with a vision for One Clark County that is sustainable and livable for all of us.

It would be my privilege to work for you to provide that leadership to get us there… together and to do that I’m asking for your support and your vote.
