Markita is confident that her education, public service career, and managerial experience partnered with her innate drive, varied skill set, and innovation will quickly contribute to the needs of District 5.
“Ensuring funding and resources are available to administration, faculty and students in our schools is a top priority. Although Harnett County continues to experience record growth, we must continue to explore capital earning ideas to address some of the overcrowding in our schools”.
“Transparency and communication between the citizens, County government, and the Board of Commissioners is an area of importance and worthy of improvement. I believe this is vital not only to the 5th district but to the entire County.”
Let's bridge the Gap!!
