Roger has been a vital asset to our valley through his volunteer involvement in county affairs. The County Board of Health has had the benefit of his volunteer time for 10 years. His work experience as both a sanitary and civil engineer has enabled him to help us with his extensive knowledge in water supply and sewage treatment. Because of his second engineering degree in civil engineering, he has much knowledge in the public works sector of roads and bridges.
He is a strong believer in public service and has the skills, temperament and commitment to be an asset filling the shoes of County Commissioner. When you speak to Roger you will notice that he actually listens and ponders what you have said before he speaks.
Roger has been volunteering for our county since his arrival almost 30 years ago. At that time, I headed up a project mapping land splits in Ravalli County that occurred by parcels going through the subdivision process and land splits that happened only through certificate of surveys. I and volunteers filled in the maps in the clerk and recorder’s office, “painting a picture” of what was happening. Roger jumped right in to help because he cared about this beautiful valley and the haphazard development that was happening, and was interested enough to give of his time.
Voting for Roger De Haan will only help the Bitterroot community!
