Ok everyone who can vote for Kinross Township Supervisor, voting is August 6th. Less than 10 days away. If I win the primary I am in unless of course someone goes as a write in during the General Election
Here are the goals if I am elected:
New equipment through grants for the golf course to make the golf course a money maker.
Get with a certain entity (only to be named if elected) to get a pharmacy built out here.
Lower the water bill to a reasonable rate and force the State to pay its fair share like they should be doing for the prison system.
Accountability for all departments starting with grounds keeping to include the cemetery and Duke Lake. I will personally over see those two areas and ensure they are up to standards the way they are supposed to be even if it means paying out of my wages a person from my company to take care of both places to include the bathrooms at Duke Lake.
Expand on the food pantries with the local churches at no cost to the tax payer.
Get the rec center more funding through community grants so we can build a multi use complex that will be used as an Ice Rink in the winter, and a revenue maker in the spring and summer months for other venues.
I will work on becoming an accredited Veteran Service Officer so our veterans like myself can use the township to get help with their claims.
I will have a Deputy Supervisor (to be named if elected) who will hold me accountable.
Build a relationship with the tribe so the code enforcement officer can do their job more easily and respectfully.
Build a working relationship with the community so we can make the township great again because without the community members we have no township.
If you want the same issues year after year then by all means vote for one of my opponents. If you want to see change with fiscal spending responsibility, our EMS and Fire to be able to sustain a healthy relationship within the community by being supported and have a living wage, then you need to vote for change. Budgets are always going to be an issue, but if you don’t have means to sustain growth your budgets will never grow and in the 16 years I have lived here all prior administrations have never allowed for any growth that would allow for bigger budgets and better wages for any of the first responders that we employ forcing them to leave and go to areas that pay better wages. That has to stop. Same with all other areas we employ people. We need to ve able to keep talent we have no lose them to other entities that pay $5-$6 more per hour with better benefits.
Again if you want to see change that will not cost the tax payer then vote for me. But if you are ok with your taxes going ho with no explanation, being called names at township meetings, having mediocre pay then by all means vote for one of my opponents.
Vote Emil Mattson for change, Vote Emil Mattson for Kinross Township Supervisor.
