Throughout the charter application process, the District administration has used methods typical of the old, inflexible, centralized approach for the delivery of education.

The old methods certainly worked, but our team at Lufkin could spend hours going through the process. This software not only saves us costs in time, but it helps us find bearings for extreme applications that we may not have otherwise known were available. That kind of value means we can produce better designs for our customers, do it faster than ever before and win business because of it.

We are a district that's growing by leaps and bounds. Not that our administration is growing a lot, but we'll need room as the district continues to grow.

The rural nature of our district relies heavily on the profitability of our family farms.

Our Northern California congressional district has been ground zero for many tragic events from an outdated and inflexible ESA, including ... the Klamath Basin water shut-off of 2001,

I just want to go at it with a workmanlike approach where everybody's going to put on their old hard hat and dig in for 40 minutes.
