Jeff Williams, Democratic candidate for Ottawa County Commissioner, District 3

Grand Haven, MI - January 18, 2010.  Growing up and living in Grand Haven for over 30 years, I would be the first to admit our community has changed - we have become more interconnected with the rest of the County as we have continued to grow.  Our citizens depend on the County for valuable services from road maintenance to health care. We need to refocus on our commitments and make sure we continue to deliver what has made Ottawa County so special, but also be aware of our growth, and position us for long term sustainability.

That is why I am running as the Democratic candidate for Ottawa County Commissioner, District 3.  By utilizing my strong leadership experience and my understanding of Ottawa County's financial needs I want to facilitate a County Commission reflecting all people in the district, working together to further progress without sacrificing the common good.

On every issue, I will ask myself: am I representing the people of Grand Haven, will this issue empower them or am I placing the needs of business before those of the individual?

There are a core set of values that guide my actions. These are uncomplicated and straightforward beliefs.
•I believe that people should be responsible for their own success, but when by no fault of their own they stumble, it is our duty to help one and other.
•I believe that power concentrated in the hands of one political party, as it is here in Ottawa County, leads to bad government and poor decisions.
•I have always thought that government service is a privilege, not a right.
I may be seen as a political outsider but I am comfortable with that label because I'm free to tell the truth and fight for what's right for all of the people of my district, no matter their political affiliation.

That is the type of Commissioner I will be - free to speak my mind, and act in the best interests of the people I represent.
