THE VISION
A local government that works well, is easy to understand and navigate, and gets better over time. Let’s make that a reality.
-
Your taxes run this county, and you deserve systems that handle them carefully. Late fees, reported gaps, and missing funds are signs of processes that aren't working the way they should. The public trust and oversight failure of Ben Jackson, which resulted in the misuse of over $1.1 million of taxpayer money, is a reminder that government works best when accountability is built into the system. Strong controls, clear processes, and regular oversight help catch problems early—before small issues become major failures.
As Auditor, Kimberly will work to build stronger processes and cleaner reconciliation so county finances are tracked properly and can be verified. Good oversight protects taxpayer money and county employees alike.
-
Most people don't want to become experts in county government. They want clear information, straightforward answers, and an easy way to understand how county decisions affect them. When information is difficult to find or understand, it creates unnecessary frustration and barriers.
As Auditor, Kimberly will work to improve public-facing reports, expand online tools and resources, and provide plain-language explanations for deductions, exemptions, and other common questions. Government information should be easy to find, understand, and use.
-
We shouldn't have to wait until residents are frustrated or the State Board of Accounts comes knocking to fix how things work. Many county systems were built for a different time and haven't kept up with how people actually live and find information today. Good government pays attention to small frustrations, recurring questions, and outdated processes before they create larger challenges.
As Auditor, Kimberly will take a proactive approach to improving county operations, identifying opportunities to reduce friction, strengthen processes, and modernize systems where appropriate. Modernization isn't change for its own sake. It's practical improvement that helps government work better.
-
When one office, one network, or one long-standing establishment culture runs things for too long, systems can quietly become less legible and less responsive to everyday people — even when no one means any harm. Healthy government benefits from fresh perspectives, collaboration, and broader representation.
As Auditor, Kimberly will bring curiosity and new eyes to county government — asking why systems work the way they do, challenging "that's how it's always been done," and building stronger collaboration across county offices.
