It is a great honor to be a candidate for City Council for the City of Senoia. I am dedicated to being fair for all citizens in all neighborhoods. I know many of you and I hear you. Sadly, my opponent Murry McAffy is an angry man. After years of incompetence as our city administrator the council effectively terminated him with a unanimous vote. Now Murry wants to come back to the city in an elected position where his votes and influence can affect all citizens. I ran for city council because the people of Senoia deserve a choice, a choice for a positive, let’s look ahead to the future approach. We have dramatic issues facing our city. Growth is around us, upon us and if we’re not careful will consume us. The entire city needs to come together. One of my goals while in office is to encourage residents from the newer communities (sub-divisions) to come to council meetings and to get involved with their city. We are too isolated from one another. My opponent wants you to think that I am exclusive and only mingle with a few, that couldn’t be further from the truth. Inclusive group discussions with as many residents as possible is what will continue our cities progress. We have so much to offer residents and the visitors who come to our town. With the planned construction of bike trails connecting the newer communities together through downtown, park renovations, library construction and hopefully a new restaurant we begin unstoppable good progress. The next few years of development and growth will be some of the most exciting years Senoia has seen in nearly 90 years. Get curious, attend council meetings and when I’m elected please call me or visit me, tell me your vision for our town. Together we make the difference. Please vote for me on November 8th to fairly and positively represent you the residents of Senoia. Regards, Perry Benson |
