I am running for Keizer City Council, position #4, to be a part of the team that is guiding our city into our new phase of growth and change, keeping in mind the philosophy of pride, spirit and volunteerism that has made Keizer a great place to live and work.

My goals as city councilor are to continue directing Keizer toward being a fall participant in regional decision-making, to continue improvements in livability for all of Keizer, and to keep the high level of volunteerism through citizen and neighborhood involvement we currently enjoy.

During the 17 years since my family and I moved to Keizer, I have been a member of several city committees. I have also been attending City Council and regional meetings to prepare for the responsibility of serving as a city councilor. I have worked hard to learn about concerns, issues, and goals that affect the citizens of Keizer. My organizational and problem solving skills are assets I will bring to an already hardworking and talented council.

Please vote for Cathy Clark for Keizer City Council, Position #4. Thank you.
