My Commitments

  • Collaboration

    When I am Mayor, I will work to collaborate with the other organizations of North Oaks. No one should be duplicating one another, as we should be maximizing our resources for the good of our community. It is what I do on a daily basis— bring parties together and keeping relationships intact in the process.

  • Housing & Property Values

    As a real estate agent in North Oaks for the past 16 years and a North Oaks resident for 23 years, I have experienced both highs and lows in the North Oaks housing market. We all have a self-interest in protecting our housing and property values and ensuring that our community has a stable foundation for future generations to come.

  • Community Engagement

    From my experience on the North Oaks Home Owners’ Association board I have found that we need a higher level of communication to the citizens of North Oaks to help involve participation in making future decisions for our city. I believe that elected officials should serve their community and the residents that reside here.

  • Dedication & Respect

    I have dedicated my time and resources in promoting North Oaks as a premier legacy community and continue to be in touch with countless residents within our city. I have earned the trust and respect of colleagues, neighbors, and associates within North Oaks and across the Twin Cities.

  • Continuing the Legacy

    This is a legacy community—we have every age here, we have all different housing stock, we are a community that tends to live here a long time. My mother-in-law is 88 years old and has been here since 1970. North Oaks is generational and we want this to remain a legacy community.

  • Privacy, Safety & Security

    On top of protecting your home and property values, safety and security also play a huge role in keeping those values on the upward incline. I plan to collaborate with local experts, including the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department to make sure that we have the most effective strategy and policy regarding public safety and security.

“When you have the right home, have great neighbors, and live in a city where you feel valued - it makes for an awesome life. That’s what North Oaks is to me!”

About Krista Wolter and Her Family…

The Wolter’s have been a part of North Oaks since 1970 when Tim’s parents, Lou & Maureen Wolter, built their dream home on the 6th hole of the golf course. They raised their 3 sons there and enjoyed that home into their retirement years. In 1999, Tim & Krista moved their young family just 3 blocks away from Lou & Maureen so that they could be close to one another and so that the grandkids could enjoy their grandparents as often as possible. “I loved being able to bike to my grandma’s house in the summertime and hang out with her after school,” commented Laney, the youngest grandchild.

Why North Oaks? The Wolters say it is because North Oaks affords them privacy, yet is a community that provides friends and neighbors that are like family right outside their front door. They say that there is no place they would rather live. Even their 2 dogs think that having 2 acres to roam with invisible fencing is a real treat! Taking walks at the end of the day through the neighborhoods and the trails is a favorite pastime for Tim and Krista. “Many of our best friendships have come from North Oaks—a real blessing for our family,” comments Krista.

A few years after Tim’s dad died in the fall of 2007, Maureen, Tim, and Krista started having conversations about the idea of purchasing a different home in North Oaks and living together with the different generations. “We all thought it would work best if we found a home that was large enough to accommodate the different ages and that had enough spaces to allow for time together and apart,” said Tim. In 2013, the Wolters moved into their present home which is just 3 blocks from both of their former homes and in an area close to the North Oaks golf course. “We were all used to living in this central location and found that it made the adjustment to a new home fairly easy,” said Maureen.
