  • Airport Funding Concerns
    May 5, 2026
    Airport Funding Concerns

    I spoke about Warren County’s airport hangar funding, fund balance, incomplete audits, and the cost of recent tax increases. Even after learning the terminology, my concern remains: $1.5 million is still public money competing with urgent county needs. Read More

    One Voice Matters: An Unexpected Dialogue with the Board

    On December 9, 2025, I stood before the Warren County Board of Supervisors to advocate for transparency in housing and public comment policy. What began as a series of technical critiques ended in a meaningful call to action for civic engagement. Read More

    Orwellian Rhetoric and Short-Term Rentals: A Night of Contrasts

    On July 1st, the Board reached a turning point, admitting that their zoning decisions “didn’t feel quite fair.” Between debates on “Orwellian” rhetoric and my observations of the crumbling ceiling, the night highlighted the need for administrative maintenance. Read More

    March 18, 2025
    Agenda Hacking: Challenging the Public Comment “Timeout”

    I strategically used the Board’s own agenda rules to challenge a restrictive public comment policy that pushes non-agenda topics to the end of the night. Beyond procedural fairness, I called for mandatory ethics training to address the risk of unauthorized recordings. Read More
