Albion trustee candidate seeks support in March 15 election

Editor:

To the Village of Albion residents, it is with much thought and consideration that I am seeking one of the two Village of Albion trustee positions that are up for election on March 15.

Being a life-long resident with a couple of stints away I’ve watched as this community has been on a roller coaster ride while hearing those around me talk about change they want to see. No longer wanting to just watch and hear, I’ve decided to become active and to begin pushing for the changes that residents are seeking, while looking to help it grow and develop back into a beautiful welcoming community.

My biggest objective in this endeavor is to take what’s been learned over 13-plus years of youth coaching and help shift the village to one of opportunity with development of businesses (existing and new) and jobs as well as a resurgence of the feeing and belief of a community bond.

I am seeking both the Democratic and Republican nominations because when it comes to our community, division and political gains is something that should never be a factor. It’s about “we” not “me” and I am looking to walk that aisle of common ground to help bring things back to focus.

Democratic caucus will be held Tuesday, Jan. 25, at 7 p.m. at the Pullman Memorial Universalist Church at 10 E. Park St.

Republican caucus will be held Tuesday, Jan. 25, at 7 p.m. at the Hoag Library, 134 S. Main St.

I live by the creed of today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday and feel it’s time that we all come together to be the change that we want to see. With that being said I am open and available for any dialogue with everyone so, if there are any questions please do not hesitate to reach out and I will do my best to answer them or let you know where my intentions are on the particular topic. My Facebook page is @mcmurray4trustee.

Thank you all in advance for your time, love and support as we begin this journey and I ask that you help share along with spread the word around. It’s not about me, it’s about we so let’s join up, get motivated and most important vote.

Respectfully,

Tim McMurray Jr.
