Mitchell’s experience best choice for District 2
Jerry Mitchell is indeed the best choice for the District 2 representative on the City Council. He has proven leadership that resulted in projects most of us have had the opportunity to experience. As head of parks and recreation under both mayors John Kinsey and Bob Corker, Jerry oversaw the programming and upkeep of our city parks and recreation areas. He also directed a marked increase in city park land – including Coolidge Park, the Champions Club in Lupton City, DuPont Park in Hixson, Enterprise South Natural Park and the 21st Century Waterfront.
These projects thrived mainly due to Jerry’s inclusive leadership style, which engaged as many residents as possible in determining how the city could best serve recreational needs in their own neighborhoods and the city as a whole.
Jerry has a commitment to citizen involvement and an ability to listen to what people want, then work on how to best deliver it. Jerry Mitchell will make an outstanding city council member.
A vote for Jerry Mitchell is a vote for collaborative and visionary decision making, and I urge you to vote for Jerry.
