Official Statement for Mervis L. Reissig
Candidate for |
||||
|
As a citizen in the unincorporated part of District 2, I know how important the Board of Supervisors' decisions are. I am a candidate because I want to find solutions to the water, transportation, garbage, infrastructure and development problems that exist in the county. I support maintenance of open spaces and agricultural lands in conjunction with healthy development. With a broad-based coalition, we can grow and sustain the local economy in an environmentally sound and labor-supportive way. I have over twenty years experience managing profitable businesses; businesses where every person played an important role and every person had great benefits and ample reward for their work. As a project manager, I provide services in accounting, human resources, software installation management and tenant improvements/construction with a focus on green-building. In addition, I serve on a national Task Force on Environment and Sustainability and am on the Board of Directors for Women for a Better World. I have a psychology degree from UCLA. Originally from rural Kansas, I have a daughter and two adorable grandchildren. I look forward to serving the people of Sonoma County and implementing progressive solutions for us all! |
