The League of Women Voters is sponsoring another candidates' forum between my opponent and me. It'll be next Tuesday, September 1st, at 6:00 p.m. The forum will take place at McClure Elementary, 1770 E 61st Street. That's on 61st, just east of Utica.
I encourage everyone to attend.
Serving as your City Councilor is about more than just one issue. It's about more than the Police and Fire budgets.
Serving as your City Councilor is about administering a budget of $500 million every year. It's about properly allocating $4 million in CDBG funds, even though there are groups, who all do wonderful work in the community, who have requested $8 million.
Serving as your City Councilor is about being responsive to your concerns when your neighbors' yards or houses aren't in compliance with the City code. It's about making sure that Public Works projects are completed on time and under budget.
Serving as your City Councilor is about making sure that your District receives its proper share of street rehab projects. It's about having a vision beyond next year's budget and working for projects that will take years to complete, like finishing the Gilcrease Expressway.
Serving as your City Councilor is about a dozen other things, both big and small.
Serving as your City Councilor is serious business. It's been my privilege and honor to represent you for nearly four years.
I encourage you to come out on September 1st and decide, for yourself, who you think will better represent you at City Hall for the next two years.
Thank you,
Rick Westcott
Tulsa is a diverse city with a bright future. But we need leaders who can represent people with diverse interests and bring all parties to the negotiating table. Rick is that type of leader. He was a Tulsa Police Officer, a carpenter, worked for a downtown bank, worked in radio for 17 years, was a college professor for 14 years, and has been a practicing attorney for 16 years. Let's re-elect Rick to represent District 2 on the Tulsa City Council.
Rick, Tammy and Brandon Westcott
