Letter to the Editor

Arlie Shaw has done a great job

Wednesday, May 21, 2008

Dear editor:

I want to encourage everyone to vote for Arlie Shaw as our Elmore County Commissioner.

As a friend, neighbor and commissioner, I know Arlie to be a man of integrity and honesty. He is committed to doing what is best for the people in Elmore County.

The two other commissioners voted Arlie Shaw to be chairman of the commission in only his second year on the board of commissioners. That says a lot by itself.

Arlie has worked hard to restore cooperation and communication between the county and other entities in the county.

He has pushed for a new comprehensive plan. He has worked hard on the Area of Impact with the City of Mountain Home and has been very involved initiating work on the Joint Land Use Compatibility Study through the Department of Defense and their Office of Economic Adjustment.

Arlie Shaw's career as an accountant assures all of us that he has the ability to understand, interpret and adjust the very complex budget of Elmore County.

Simply stated, we are fortunate to have a man of Arlie Shaw's character willing to serve us as commissioner.

Please vote for Arlie Shaw on May 27.

Shane Zenner
