InfoHello, I'm Tom Krahenbuhl, and I believe I'm the best candidate to serve as the next Sheriff of Jackson County.

A number of factors make me the most suitable candidate. I have extensive experience with law enforcement, the County administrative know-how to carry out the task, 48 life-long years of residence in Jackson County, numerous capacities of community involvement, and a long history of employment with the County.

My 24 years of full and part time employment as a Sheriff's deputy have given me an intimate knowledge of the people of the County and the everyday cares facing them. I've seen the effect of burglaries, thefts, drugs, alcohol abuse, and domestic problems, not to mention the fears of terrorism that now make the front page. As a result, I pledge to stand for the justice of the citizen using my specialized training and the tools at my disposal on local, state, and federal levels.

My skills in administration have proven that I can get the job done. I have managed all aspects of land development from zoning through construction, weighing stormwater and budgeting factors in the balance. This was accomplished through my service in the Jackson County Planning & Zoning Department, the TIF Commission, and the Stormwater Commission.

I've contributed exhaustively to the community in and around Jackson County as well. This can be seen in my leadership roles among civic organizations and Masonic bodies. My record includes: Chairman of the Cost Containment Committee for the Lee's Summit R-VII School District CAC, President/CEO of John Calvin Manor Retirement Center-Lee's Summit, and Ombudsman for the Department of Defense, ESGR. Additional community involvement includes the Lee's Summit Beautification Committee (member), Blue Springs Shrine Club (Jr. Past President), Fox 4 Love Fund Horse Show (Co-Chair), and Official of the Missouri State Fair Society Horse Show.

It's clear that my understanding of the workings of Jackson County and my care for the citizens of Jackson County are perhaps my most distinguishing advantages over all the competing candidates. All along, I've been living with the people of Jackson County, helping them carry out their daily business, protecting them from harm, and leading them through my community involvement.

I look forward to this opportunity to serve you yet again, and ask for your vote on August 5, 2008.

Tom Krahenbuhl
