"Grass Roots, Grows Roots": Interview with Paul Guttenberg & Patrick McCormick

This week I participated in an interview about how local government issues connect with people where we can do the most good for our communities. In this formate Patrick McCormick and I are able to discuss some of the most important issues La Plata faces today.

I hope you can take a few minutes to hear what Patrick and I have to say and how our views have been shaped and informed by our engagement with residents in La Plata during this election cycle.

If you want to give La Plata’s next Town Council the best chance to solve our most important issues, please vote for:

• Myself Paul Guttenberg in Ward I

• Patrick McCormick in Ward II and

• Tyjon “TJ” Johnson in Ward IV

In La Plata’s council form of government, if elected with these 3 votes we will carry the majority in the 5 person Town Council on critical issues and can move with purpose to address the concerns you care about.

To make this happen WE RELY ON YOUR VOTE this coming Tuesday May 6th, @ Town Hall, 7AM - 8PM.
