I would like to thank the citizens of the 5th District for giving me the opportunity to serve as your county commissioner in 2011. It has been a humbling and gratifying experience serving you. We have accomplished many good things this past year, and as we look to 2012 there is a lot more we can do. Bringing more jobs to the area, keeping our property taxes in check, environmental matters and assuring the safest roads possible are a few of the issues that we need to continue to work on. Knowing your position and needs is a necessary part of representing you. Please feel free to contact me with your ideas and concerns on issues that affect us all right here in Freeborn County. My phone number is 507-402-1211. Thank you again and please have a safe and happy new year.

Mike Lee

Freeborn County commissioner
