What do you find most rewarding about serving on the Council?

The opportunity to interact with the citizens and the business community is immensely rewarding. I enjoy helping people learn how to make their voice heard in the on-going decision making process. I appreciate it when someone starts a new neighborhood association to bring people closer together where they are better able to support each other’s needs.
