Jim's Top Two Priorities: 
1. The extension of Willowcreek Road from the Portage city limits to Indiana 130. Porter County Board of Commissioners approved a revised contract that will take the proposal through its engineering phase. The road extension, at just under 2 miles, will help alleviate congestion on the county’s north-south byways, and improve response time for first responders. 
to south county residents.  

2. The creation of a level I Trauma Unit located in Porter County. Northwest Indiana has no Level I or Level II trauma centers. Gary Methodist is its the only Level III center in all of NWI. The closest Level I unit is in Oak Lawn, Illinois. This is a huge disadvantage to all of us who may need advanced immediate emergency medical care. Especially, those residents dealing with ongoing life threatening illnesses.
