He continued, "During drives back and forth, I have been thinking about the demands of this position. There are the anticipated challenges such as developing a budget, promoting the district's interest in the upcoming legislative session, and exhausting every avenue to reward our employees for the work they do. There are also always unanticipated challenges, which is why this job demands full attention and focus. Roy Disney once said, 'It's not hard to make decisions when you know what your values are.' While I understand the meaning of this quote, when your values are in conflict with your obligations, these decisions are still wrenching."
