Bob Schuldt
Candidate for District 4 Commissioner
1. Tell us about yourself.
I am a lifelong resident of Houston County, graduate of La Crescent High School, with an associate degree at Alexandria Tech College. I have over 33 years in public service in law enforcement, 23 years on the La Crescent Fire and First Responders, and over seven years of experience on the La Crescent Township Board and I am currently chairman. I also volunteer with the La Crescent Snowmobile Club and have held the positions of secretary and vice president. I am the lead instructor for MN DNR Snowmobile Safety training, over 30 years instructing the course.
2. Why are you running for office?
With the vacancy of the position I knew that I was qualified and can do the job required. I am unique in being the only candidate that has prior experience working with the departments that Houston County Commissioners supervises, such as the Jail/Sheriff Department, Highway Department, Human Services, Public Health, Zoning, and setting and maintaining the budgets. Houston County needs to operate efficiently and provide citizens with quality services they need with qualified experienced leaders.
What do you hope to accomplish if you get elected?
My belief is that service related work is the most rewarding. I will be a representative for ALL the people with a fair and open mind. My goal is to actively research any issues and concerns of both department heads and citizens while maintaining a high level of service and maintaining and keeping a balanced responsible financial budget.
