I might be a bit biased but I believe Clay County has the best Veterans Service Officer in the State of Minnesota. Congratulations Curt Cannon on your well deserved 4 year reappointment and thank you for your unwavering service to our Veterans and their families.

I am always thankful for the opportunity to work for the citizens of Clay County.

With the ongoing discussions about the redevelopment of the Moorhead Center Mall area, county officials have been contacted about the status of the Department of Motor Vehicle (DMV). Roers recently submitted a press release that stated tenants with month-to-month leases at the Moorhead Center Mall will no longer be renewed after December 31st, 2023. Clay County’s current lease runs through November of 2025. The Clay County Board of Commissioners have requested that a strategic plan be developed for a future location. The Commission has approved a pre-design study to assess options, including building a new facility or moving to an existing location. Clay County will provide additional information as it becomes available.

I am once again humbled and honored to serve District 4 for another 4 years. A big THANK YOU to all of you who supported and had the confidence in me to once again represent you.
Election Day Anxiety is over!
Those who were courageous enough to put your name on a ballot know Election Day is probably one of the longest days you, your family and helpful friends will experience. For a candidate, waiting for vote counts to come in is excruciating. No one on a ballot wants to be defeated, that In itself brings incredible anxiety. This year marked the 13th time my name was on either a primary or general election ballot dating back to 1993. Even with no opposition this time, the anxiety of being on the ballot was still there. I also want to congratulate and thank every candidate for the willingness and courage to put your name on a ballot to serve the people.

Daily Throwback photo,
Looking back in time!
I owe a lot to Deputy Scott Rogers.
As Chair of the Oakport Township Board from 1993 thru 2002 I worked on many issues with Deputy Rogers including the devastating flood of 1997. Scott was one of the people who influenced me most to run for Clay County Commissioner. In those days Night to Unite was known as National Night Out. Scotty would insist that I come and speak at his home where he and his wife Kathi would host this annual neighborhood event. I owe a lot to Deputy Rogers but more importantly we all owe him for his dedicated service protecting Clay County citizens.
Sadly, Scotty’s End of Watch came unexpectedly and way to young in 2006 while in “The Line of Duty”.
I will forever be grateful to you Deputy Rogers.
