To the Residents of Michigan City

“As a resident of our city, I am concerned about the dangerous direction in which it is trending”

I am running for mayor of Michigan City because I have lived here my entire life. As a resident of our city, I am concerned about the dangerous direction in which it is trending when it comes to important issues such as public safety and economic growth and development.

“The Michigan City residents know what they need for a better quality of life”

The Michigan City residents know what they need for a better quality of life, and they know what issues are important to them. They understand that these downturns negatively impact their quality of life, and that it is imperative that a mayor provides them with leadership that is on their side. I have a proven track record of understanding and addressing the needs of the residents, while providing quality services in the day-to-day operations of Michigan City.

“I will work to implement crime reduction initiatives”

Local government does have the power to improve their constituents’ quality of living and to help provide a safer community for their residents. Through a series of collaborations, I will work to implement crime reduction initiatives, to bolster our law enforcement agencies’ resources and personnel. I will collaborate with the city council to financially invest in all our city personnel and needed equipment, which is necessary to provide our community with the best public health and safety departments possible. Furthermore, I will launch an all-out campaign to rid our city of blight and dilapidated structures. This initiative was successful my first two terms as mayor, and we can have the same positive results again.

“It is crucial that the residents’ tax dollars are used to improve their quality of life and neighborhoods”

And finally, I will schedule the annual reconstruction and repairs of our neighborhood streets and sidewalks. It is crucial that the residents’ tax dollars are used to improve their quality of life in their neighborhoods. During my two terms as mayor, I worked to forge strong partnerships that spearheaded over $1 billion dollars in public and private investment, economic development and ultimately, the betterment of our community.

 “If the residents want someone that is on their side, then I am that person”

I have a legacy of getting things accomplished when no one else could because I believe in collaborating with others to get the job done. If the residents want someone that is on their side, then I am that person. My history and commitment to this city includes my time as a Michigan City Sanitary District employee, Human Rights Commissioner for 6 years, Michigan City Councilman for 8 years, and Mayor of Michigan City from 2012 through 2019. I believe my combined experience of 35 years will be an asset when collaborating with government officials at all levels, with no delays on day one.

“I am sincerely asking every voter of Michigan City for the opportunity to be your mayor again”

I am sincerely asking every voter of Michigan City for the opportunity to be your mayor again, and if you give me the opportunity, I will continue to strive for a standard of excellence for all Michigan City residents.
