Letter: Here’s why I am voting for Steve Lukemeyer

Here’s why I’m voting for Steve Lukemeyer for Jasper School Board. I have known Steve personally for years but have spent the last 10 years working alongside him in a professional capacity at F.C. Tucker Emge.

Through many real estate scenarios we have discussed over the years, I have found Steve to be very thoughtful, considering all sides, possibilities, and potential outcomes before coming up with a game plan. He fully considers clients’ best interests within the current real estate law before making decisions on how to best handle a situation. He isn’t one to make rash, unfounded decisions. He treats situations and people fairly.

I believe how Steve conducts his real estate business will translate into how he would help conduct the business of Greater Jasper Consolidated Schools.

Thoughtful. He will weigh all decisions before him with careful consideration and do what he feels is in the best interest of GJCS students and their education.

Furthermore, Steve has a personal stake in our school system with four children who are or will be enrolled. He is an independent thinker who would offer a fresh perspective and would undoubtedly take the role of School Board Member very seriously to help maintain our school system’s high level of educational excellence. Vote for Steve!
