The couple has three sons,
Rayne, 15; Dane, 13, and
Patrick, 10. All attend school
in Perkins. The Hinkle family
has lived in Perkins for three
years.
Hinkle said, 'Tm really not
a political person at all, but I
belong to the community. As
a citizen of the community,
I feel it's important to be
involved."
Hinkle said she's very inter-
ested in how policies and
procedure are applied to the
community.
"I've read the city charter
and I'm starting to read city
codes," she said. "Perkins
is growing. Some policies
are adequate, some need
changed or added to to reflect
our changes."
Hinkle said she started
attending city commission
meetings several months ago,
and has learned a lot about the
community.
"I love that [Perkins is a]
small town and that people
know each other, and that
we're a community that cares
about each other and what's
going on in this town," she
SPA
said. "It's very important
we keep up with change and
growth in the community."
Hinkle believes the com-
mission has a responsibility
to listen to people and fry to
make Perkins better.
"I'm a 'people person' and
love talking with people," she
added. "I really care about
what happens in the town."
Hinkle and Norton did not
draw opponents during the
recent filing period for the
Ward 1 and 3 positions. They
will be sworn in during the
regular city commission meet-
ing set for Tuesday evening,
April 10.
Both Hinkle and Norton
said they're looking forward
to meeting Perkins citizens,
and invite everyone to attend
the swearing-in ceremony.
If you are unable to attend
the meeting, but would like
to contact the new commis-
sioners, simply email them.
