PAGE 6 Bart Miller, City Council Candidate Name, Age, Occupation, Address Bart Miller, 50 years of age and live at 502 3rd Avenue. I am a business owner in the town of Clarence. Why do you feel you are the most qualified candidate to fill the open council seat? Having sat on the council for four years I believe I understand how the city should run in an efficient fashion. It has been an enjoyable four years but there is still things that need to be accomplished. Do you have any specific issues you feel need to be addressed in our community? We need to continue with replacing water mains as the budget allows and also seriously consider the curb and gutter option for the city. Infiltration is still a major concern and needs to be a top priority for the next council. “Being a business owner in town I am very accessible if someone needs something…” For CURRENT council members: What qualities do you feel you have brought to the council during your tenure? Being a business owner in town I am very accessible if someone needs something or has a question. I feel I am a very good listener and take citizens concerns to the council to be acted on. With the second business venture started in town I am not planning on leaving town anytime soon. I believe in this town, as well as believing in the people that live here. What are your positions on current community projects, such as the library building project, downtown beautification and promotion of new business in Clarence? How will you, as a councilperson, assist in promoting these projects? Our downtown defiantly [sic] needs some attention. This is obvious by driving thru and looking at some of the buildings. As far as the library goes, I feel a new library would be a great asset to the community but it needs to be funded as the committee brought it to us at a council meeting, by grants and donations.
