I would come back. I like it here. Although if I go to Oregon, I would most likely work in/around Portland and I could get some ideas

the region will miss you, if you leave… although, wherever you go, that region will be the better for it! while you’re here, we want to keep you engaged!

I have thought about it. I almost ran for this next election but I think Burfoot is already being challenged. Also I might have to move in a few years for my significant other to complete her Master’s. That will most likely take me to the west coast (i.e. Oregon). I don’t think I can be long-distance city-councilman. One day though. Although more could probably be done to downtown from the private sector if you could find a company with the courage to take risk.

I wholeheartedly agree… you’ve got the right idea for downtown! I know that my husband and I do all that we can do to support downtown business. Thanks, Russell… so when are you running for City Council?
