Bill Reiber has filed as a Republican candidate for the Genoa Township Board.
Reiber, who described himself in a release as an “ideas guy” who thinks outside the box, has lived in Genoa Township for the past 21 years. He has a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from Lawrence Technological University, and has worked for 30 years as a manufacturing engineer and program manager, which helps him visualize projects from conception to completion.
“I have an open mind, critical thinking skills, and employ fairness, logic and reasoning to make decisions,” Reiber said. “I am a fiscal conservative with a heart for volunteering and community enrichment.”
Reiber, 55, lives with his wife of 25 years, Michelle. The couple have two adult children and are expecting their first grandchild in August.
Reiber said preserving the blessings of living in a wonderful combination of rural and suburban community for his grandchildren is his chief motivation for running for office.
“Maintaining a balance of commercial and residential properties is vital to preserving a community’s prosperity,” he said. “If elected, I pledge to work to obtain the balance the residents are rightly demanding of their elected officials. I will be a good steward of Township resources and work with residents to achieve common goals.”
