Pedrotti For Council Place 2

Elect Joan Pedrotti to Windcrest City Council Place 2.  

Joan Pedrotti would be a welcome addition to the Windcrest City Council.  These are the quotes from her campaign literature.

Elect Joan Pedrotti

City Council Place 2

·       I support our Windcrest Volunteer Fire Department 100% and I will do anything in my power to make sure they are allowed to continue their excellent mission.

·       I support a realistic and viable plan to repair and maintain our roads and alleyways.  The voters deserve a clear and concise 20 – 30-year plan concerning the infrastructure of our city.   I will actively support and pursue the preparation of such a plan.

·       I believe that the people elected to represent the citizens of Windcrest should present themselves in a professional, civil and respectful manner.  

Violation of Ordinance concerning Political Signs

  Below is the Ordinance concerning Political Signs.  The Ordinance clearly states :  "within the city and may not be erected, used or installed more than 20 days preceding the commencement of early voting for the election or 20 days "  So why are those Black Signs already out?  Because two sitting council persons and the other voted off council last year continue to "Strut their Stuff," "Thumb their Noses," and "Do what they Darn Well Please."  The Mayor supports their Antics so they are a protected class.
