About Terry

I built my businesses here over 30 years ago because I believed in this community then as much as I do now. But I feel we can do substantially better as a city in delivering services to all the residents. That begins with focusing more on improving communication with all our residents. As leaders, we have a duty to listen more to our constituents and inform them of the decisions that affect them.

Finally, we need a mayor who can collaborate with others, listen to the key stakeholders and make the best decision for our residents ahead of any personal agenda or inside deal making. That’s how I run my business and that is how I will govern as your mayor.
