Hello! My name is Jim Zons, and I am running for reelection to the Dunn County, Wisconsin Board of Supervisors, representing District 6. I was first elected in 2016, and I consider it an honor to serve as your representative, and I would appreciate your vote on Tuesday, April 7, 2026! I believe in good government and serving the residents of Dunn County in the following ways:
Improving the Quality of Tainter Lake. As a 34 year Tainter Lake resident, improving the quality of this outstanding recreational treasure is of utmost importance to me. As a county board member, I have supported policies that enhance water quality throughout the county. In addition, I am the county’s representative on the Tainter Lake Rehabilitation District which is laser-focused on improving many aspects of Tainter Lake, from sedimentation, to vegetation, to no wake zones and boat landings. Make Tainter Lake Less Green Again!- Fixing the damn roads! I voted to fix County Road B (the most traveled county road in Dunn County) with that work completed in 2025. It’s about time, and I helped get it done!
- Expanding Broadband Internet. I served on the Dunn County Broadband Taskforce and helped attract several national grants that were awarded to expand broadband to many parts of Dunn County … and we’re just getting started!
- No Tax Increases. I voted to not raise property taxes for Dunn County residents for the 2024 budget, and it is my goal to minimize or eliminate future tax increases as we move forward!
- Regulate Data Centers in Dunn County. I support creating a task force to study how large data centers have impacted other municipalities (both positive and negative consequences). Then, the county should establish a process and set of rules for when a large data center developer approaches Dunn County seeking to build here. This process must prioritize transparency to eliminate secret handshake deals that leave the public uninformed until it’s too late to effect change.
- County Leadership. I was the former chair of the Community Resources and Tourism Committee, dedicated to promoting tourism and economic development in Dunn County. I also served on the Dunn County Committee for Administration, the Executive Committee, the Dunn County Broadband Taskforce, and I am the county’s appointed representative on the Tainter Lake Rehabilitation District. Experience and leadership working for YOU!
