Mark Snider

“We have known Rod for over 25 years. We raised our three young sons into men here. Educated, all three have great jobs and have all supported this community and school systems. So much growth has happened, but the city has veered off the families first, strong education standards, supporting homeowners (especially now seniors) as well as public safety. I watch each day as drivers speed through school zones, ignore using turn signals and speed through red lights. WE believe in Rod to fix this!”
