Your Representative
John Penney
Winnebago
County
Board
District 9

Pillars of my campaign
ECONOMIC GROWTH
John Penney will use his decades of expertise in negotiations to help bring Board Members to Budget Agreements that will help foster a better environment for business growth in the entire County.
Infrastructure
Infrastructure dollars are a top priority and I will fight to utilize them in Dist. 9 to ensure good-paying jobs and lay the future for promising developments to sustain and increase the quality of life for all residents!
Public Safety
Public Safety is a top priority to protect our front-line men and women. It is essential that we make sure these men and women have the resources and training they need to be successful.
“As a County Board Member, my top three priorities will be reducing crime, funding for better roads, and creating good-paying jobs for our residents…. District 9 includes the Rockford Airport, and I will also make its continued development a priority if elected.”
