When asked about his vision for the remainder of his current term, he said, "I look forward to the changes that are in progress within the City. I am appreciative of the support of the Council in taking the big steps forward. Everything from the automatic meter reading system, updated accounting and billing system, to the Disc Golf course that has recently been constructed by a wonderful group of volunteers. I am overwhelmed by the support of so many in that process. It speaks volumes about our community. I believe it shows an eagerness and willingness to see new things happen here." Chad's term will expire in April 2025.
