Why I’m Running for Platte County Clerk
Happy Saturday, Platte County!
There is a lot of movement in our local races right now. We have exciting candidates stepping up to challenge incumbents who—lest we forget—voted themselves a 30% raise using your hard-earned tax dollars.
I am officially in the race for County Clerk, and I am gaining support daily. While my opponents may focus on issues outside the Clerk's office, my focus is exactly where it needs to be: Statutory duty and fiscal stewardship.
My Commitment to You:
- Fair Assessments: I will bring maturity and common sense to the Board of Equalization. I won't stand by while the State Tax Commission or local offices hike assessments like they did in 2025.
- Office Audit: I will conduct a full review of the Clerk’s office—staffing, fees, and hours—to ensure we are serving business owners and residents efficiently.
- Professionalism: It’s time to end the "courthouse vitriol." I will restore courteous, discreet, and professional communication between our elected offices.
- Taxpayer Advocacy: I will advocate to state legislators to improve laws for the benefit of Platte County property owners.
Let’s Talk Taxes: Many are talking about the Homestead Act and the KCMO E-Tax. I support limiting property tax increases and oppose the E-tax. However, as your Clerk, I won't just "pontificate" on things I can't control—I will focus on the actual duties of the office to save you money.
How You Can Help: Filing opens this Tuesday! To get our message out via signs, mailers, and billboards, I need your help.
