Re-Elect Kendall Rumsey, Lake Park Commission

Dear Friends,

It is with excitement, towards the future, that today I announce my candidacy for re-election to the Town of Lake Park Commission.

One year ago, the residents of Lake Park honored me by electing me to the Commission for a three year term. Unfortunately prior to being sworn into office, the United States Justice Department filed suit against the Town for alleged past Voting Rights discrepancies. Over many months, the Town negotiated with the Justice Department to settle the suit and in the end a decision was reached. This decision required all Commissioners to go up for election in March of 2010, which brings us to today.

As your Town Commissioner I have worked diligently to do what is best for our Town. We have moved forward on a number of programs that are making a difference in the Town of Lake Park.

Over the past year we have added two additional Sherriff Deputies to our CRA district, making us a safer community.

As your Commissioner, I put forth recommendations to enhance street lighting in our town. Soon we will be voting on a referendum to implement this program, providing for new lighting throughout our community, a step that has proven to be a deterrent to crime, making our neighborhoods safer.

I put forth our Town’s strongest legislation to date curbing the growth of Sober/Group Homes in our R1 districts. Additionally, I am working with the State Legislature to bring forth legislation requiring that these homes be licensed.

When running for Commission, I stressed the need for our community to be informed on the issues. I pushed for more frequent communication and today our newsletter e-blast go out weekly and I have made every effort to keep you informed on the issues facing of our Town.

We have made tremendous progress in our Downtown over the past year. A new Mexican restaurant is preparing to move into the One Park Place building, our Arts Co-op will be opening soon, a new Pilate’s studio has opened and we are working hard with our existing businesses to bring more traffic to our downtown community.

The progress that has been made in our Town over the last year has been remarkable. Together, we as a community have moved forward, we are on the right path and I ask for your support in keeping this progress going.

During this campaign I will stick to the issues, the people of Lake Park deserve a campaign that is issues oriented, not driven by personal attacks. We as a community are working together to move us forward and I will continue to work diligently for you to make Lake Park the best it can possibly be.

Lake Park has a bright future and it will take all of us working together to make the dreams for our community come to fruition. I ask for your support in the March 9th election for Town Commissioner. I believe in this city and know that together we can do anything, we have made much progress, but more is needed and with your support we will continue to move in a positive direction.

Over the next few weeks, I will be going door to door to discuss the issues with our residents.
