Happy Friday everyone!!! I wanted to share some words today.
I want to thank two groups of people in our community that make Prineville what it is.
First I want to thank the staff at the city for the hard work put in to ensure that services are provided to all the citizens and that our infrastructure is running. Late nights when a water main goes out or answering questions at the front desk and everything in between. They run a lean crew and everyone is cross trained in other positions so there is less stress when someone is out. They also work hard to not spend money unnecessarily and that we get our return on investment. Prineville Police Department this include all of you and everyone in every department.
Next I want to thank the residents of Prineville for always staying engaged through good times and times of concern. I do my best to listen to every concern, every comment, every phone call, every email, and everyone I talk to daily on the streets or in the store. It tells me that we have a community that cares about the future of Prineville and that they want to preserve our way of life. I will never forget that we are a timber, farming, and ranching community and the Cowboy Capital of Oregon. Times may change and technology definitely changes, but we are still Prineville.
