Letter to the Editor: Oneil excellent candidate for PUD commissioner

Posted

Editor,

I’m writing this letter in support of James Oneil for Clark Public Utility District commissioner. James will be an excellent Clark PUD commissioner and will serve District 1 and all of Clark County well in this role. He is an excellent listener, an eager learner and an active participant in many major events and groups in Clark County. He has won the support of every mayor of every city in Clark County for a very good reason. He listens and he cares. He cares about the people that Clark PUD serves and the needs they have for affordable electricity not only today but far into the future. He supports the use of natural gas and the future use of small nuclear energy reactors, which will be one of the cleanest, most affordable sources we can use in the future. Wind is variable, and solar is variable, based on seasons and weather, and Clark County needs affordable and consistent electricity 365 days a year. James understands this and has worked tirelessly with every area of this county to get to know people and understand their needs and wants for their future electricity needs. The employees of Clark PUD have gotten to know James and support him. Many members of the public have listened to him speak and appreciate the effort he makes to listen and learn and represent their concerns and needs to Clark PUD. Vote for James, and you will not regret your vote. He will do the job well and represent each one of us.
