Some Thoughts to Ponder by Woodcreek Voters
There are two kinds of people who run for city office. The first kind is the ‘politician’ type who has too much time on their hands, and sits around thinking of new projects for which they can take credit because they had a small part in getting the projects accomplished or just rubber stamping someone else’s ideas. Then they tout these ‘accomplishments’ to get reelected. Some of these projects may be the will of most of the citizens, but some of them may be just the will of a small but loud minority. These ‘politician’ types often run into trouble when trying to balance the budget of a small town.
The second kind of people who run for city office are people who love their community and desire to donate their time, knowledge, experience and wisdom to listen to the will and needs of the majority of the citizens and work to help. Since moving to Woodcreek almost 2 years ago, I have been to several city council meetings, including last month’s budget meeting. My observations are that there are an abundance of the first kind and far too few of the second kind. I urge the citizens of Woodcreek to vote in the upcoming city election on November 7th and vote for Aurora Le Brun.
