termine that size and get to it as
quickly as possible.”
Key Issues:
“...unacceptable governmental
growth and unaffordable expendi-
tures, resulting in high property
taxation.”
“ everyone in the private sector is
suffering one way or another, and
the prospects do not appear bright
if we stay the current course.”
“...someone at some level has to
tighten the purse strings. And that’
s what I hope to do.”

“...with common sense, guided by
documents, along with
our founding documents,
transparent and diligent scrutiny.”
Key Issues:
“Relentless spending and over
taxation, private property and indi-
vidual rights.”
“...the two parties have both sought
election to influence government to
operate in the service of perpetuat-
ing the parties at the expense of
transparency and accountability.”
“ ...individual property owners
rights, which an elected servant is
oath and duty bound to protect.”

“There has been a lack of diligence
and accountability in the execution
execution
and oversight of large project budg-
budg-
ets. County taxes are too high and
I know by cutting out the waste we
could decrease taxes without low-
ering our standard of living.”
Key Issues:
“...focus on local jobs, a tight
budget, and lower taxes…”
“...we must stop selling ourselves
out to failed federal and state pro-
grams because they come attached
to grant money.”
“...overhaul our priorities to meet
the day. The county...lists ‘Rail
Service: Chicago to Iowa City’ as a
‘High Priority’ but makes no men-
tion of lower taxes, property rights,
or transparency.”
John P. Riley
Resolutions:
“County spending should be de-
flated to maintenance levels and the
budget thoroughly scrubbed of ex-
cess. This is the only path to prop-
erty tax relief and it is a step to-
ward righting the economy.”
“...focused
“...focused on restoring our county,
state, and country to the constitu-
constitu-
tional principles of small govern-
govern-
ment and reduced taxation.”
“Even projects in the process of
being implemented should be ex-
amined with the goal of reducing
their projected costs.”
“High property taxes can be recti-
fied as a result of spending reduc-
tions.”

Resolutions:
“regulate based on the State and
Federal constitutions”
with the best interests of the
“...
constituents in their counties at the
fore”
limit the government directives
“...
for land uses.”
“...consideration for possible dam-
age should be evaluated and rec-
ommendations made.”
“IFA candidates seek to be elected
to ensure government operates
within its constitutional purview and
is more
more accountable to everyone in
Scott County.”

Resolutions:
“There are no magic tricks or gran-
gran-
deur ideas necessary to fix the dis-
dis-
connect. Integrity, diligence, and a
sense of obligation to the tax-
tax-
payers is all that is needed and, if
elected, that is how I will lead.”
“Scott County officials should be
able to focus on the people of Scott
County without ever having to be
distracted by party affiliation.”
“With congressional approval rat-
ings in the dumps, now might be a
good time to take the wheel and
steer Scott County in a direction
that makes sense locally. Heavy
federal control is currently heading
us towards a cliff. “
“It shouldn't matter which party has
a majority. The only important ma-
jority is of the people that are being
represented.”
