NEWS-HERALD QUESTIONSI ANSWERS: SHOULD YOU BE ELECTED WHAT ARE THREE SPECIFIC AREAS YOU'D LIKE TO CHANGE, ADDRESS, IMPROVE OR FURTHER RESEARCH AND HOW SPECTFICALLY WOULD YOU GO ABOUT IT. 1. I'D LIKE TO IMPROVE THE CITY'S WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH EXISTING MENTOR BUSINESSES AS WELL AS ACTIVELY WORK TO BRING NEW COMPANIES INTO MENTOR. TIlE SHEETZ DEBACLE SHOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED. THE LOSS OF THOSE JOBS WAS CAUSED BY POLITICAL GAMING. ATTRACTING NEW BUSINESSES CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY TAKING A MORE AGGRESSIVE ROLE IN PURSUING OPPORTUNITIES SUCH AS ATTENDING THE LC.S.C. EVENT WHICH ANNUALLY PUTS TOGETHER HUNDREDS OF BUSINESSES WITH POTENTIAL NEW LOCATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY ... WHY SHOULDN'T MENTOR HAVE THAT SAME OPPORTUNITY. WARD 4 HAS THE UNIQUE POSITION OF BEING THE RECREATION WARD WITH BLACKBROOK GOLF COURSE, ICE SKATING RINK, VETERANS PARK AND MENTOR LAGOONS. BECAUSE OF ABUNDANCE OF "GREEN SPACE" WE HAVE A HIGHER DENSITY OF DEER POPULA nON THAN MANY AREAS IN MENTOR. THIS MUST BE ADDRESSED. 1 DON'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWSERS, BUT STRONGL Y BELIEVE WE MUST SEEK A WORKABLE SOLUTION BEFORE A CHILD GETS INJURED BY A STARTLED DEER. WHILE WALKING THE STREETS TNMY WARD, 1'VE BEEN AMAZED BY HOW COMFORTABLE THE DEER ARE _. NOT AT ALL AFRAIDWHICH CAN as A PROBLEM WAITING TO HAPPEN. THE PRACTICE OF "RUNNING FROM COVER" MUST BE ADDRESSED. I PERSONALLY HAVE NO ISSUE WITH A COUNCILMAN RUNNING FOR A HIGHER OFFICE (WHICH MAY BENEFIT MENTOR RESIDENTS) BUT TO RUN FROM ONE COUNCIL SEAT TO ANOTHER, MJD- TERM, IS STRlCTL Y A POLlCIT AL POWER PLA Y. ALLOWING THIS TO HAPPEN IS TAKING THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE OUT OF COUNCIL. EVERY TIME AN APPOINTMENT IS MADE, RATHER THAN A REPRESENTATIVE BEtNG VOTED ON, THE VOICE OF MENTOR RESIDENTS IS GETTING SOFTER AND SOFTER ... .YOU CAN BARELY HEAR IT NOW.

WHETHER FOR PAST ACCOMPLISHMENTS SHOULD VOTERS ELECT YOU?

OR FUTURE GOALS, WHY

RESIDENTS OF WARD 4 SHOULD VOTE FOR ME BECAUSE MY TOP PRIORlTY IS TO REPRESENT WARD 4 RESIDENTS FOR A FULL 4 YEAR TERM TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITy .... NO GAMES, NO HIDDEN AGENDAS. I WANT TO MAKE THE WARD AND CITY I LOVE SO MUCH A BETTER PLACE IN WHICH TO LIVE. I'VE SEEN MENTOR GROW FROM A VILLAGE TO BEING NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE TOP 100 CITIES TO LIVE IN. I'VE BEEN INVOLVED IN MANY FACETS OF OUR COMMUNITY AND KNOW WITHOUT A DOUBT THAT IT IS fNDEED "BETTER IN MENTOR". AS WARD 4 COUNCILMAN I WILL STRIVE TO MAKE MY WARDA BETTER PLACE FOR US ALL BY LISTENING TO YOU, RESPECTING YOUR OPINION AND RESPONDING TO YOUR NEEDS.
