Meet Penuel

I am a candidate for the 4th Ward but I am also committed to serving the needs of all residents of the Town. Having lived in Georgetown for 24 years I believe I know both its strengths and the areas that require attention in order to improve and preserve our historic community.

I am a local businessman and with my wife Kim and we have raised our three sons. During our time here I have been involved in leadership positions in several of our valued community organizations. Proudly, I have served the community as the longest active Chief of our outstanding Volunteer Fire Department, where I am currently serving as Deputy Chief. Also during my residency I have been committed to the continuation of programs for our youth, most notably the Georgetown Little League where I have been a member for 20 years and during which I served as President for 5 Years.

My personal investment in the Town also includes my member-ship on the Town’s Planning Commission where recommenda-tions are made to the Mayor and Council regarding development and zoning issues.

We Need Your Support

I am interested in hearing from residents about the problems and/or suggestions that are important to them so that they may be included in future discussions. I would appreciate your support in the upcoming election. Let’s work together to keep Georgetown a small town with a big future.

Issues

If elected, I would focus attention and discussion in the following areas during my first term:

  • Review of newly enacted budget to assess budget deficit strategies and the possibilities for any and all cost saving measures
  • Review of current Town Ordinances with regard to building structures, maintenance, resolution of public health and safety issues
  • Along with the Town Manager, Police Chief and other Council members enter into discussions with non-profit organizations regarding needed services to persons not domiciled
  • Complete the needed update to the Town’s Comprehensive Plan which should proactively guide future development
  • Continually strive to seek creative solutions to problems which would impede our economic growth or that detract from the preservation of our historic Town
