Updated (5/8/23 8:35 am): Bill Boland submitted a Candidates’ Statement. It was past the deadline for posting as a letter (that would automatically be included in daily emails). But I do think that voters should have access to the information so they can make an informed choice when voting in the race for the Board of Commissioners of Trust Funds. Therefore, I added a link to a pdf of his letter in that section above.
