I am personally Jovanka Beckles. I reside as well as work in Richmond as well as I am just the member of the Richmond Town Authorities in the Nov 2008 political election.
My personal candidacy for Richmond Town Authority is founded on my own confidence, shared to many and also much Richmond calls for every single agent an unequivocal protection of our accelerating neighborhood principles and also dreams.
Richmond has wonderful future. We should modify the appearance that has been related to Richmond - that it's a major city ridden with criminal offense, undesirable roadways, as well as the most detrimental air pollution within the Bay Region. To be in a position to modify that impression, we should have executives who feel wonderfully as well as who symbolize the curiosity for citizen of Richmond. We have to focused that the selected representatives believe forwards and also not in the opposite direction.
To make sure our town to succeed, we must have greater as well as more rapidly options. We certainly have talented individuals, however the appropriate adjustments haven't materialized. The options we require is only in a position to materialize when our citizens brings Richmond again from as an area manage by gas organizations to a city operate by the community; a town in which the Metropolis Local authority or council listens and also does respond to the worries of its inhabitants, as opposed to the interest of the oil business.
With the exact same time, our organization is encountering a nationally change of heads. A brand new influx of change is growing, as well as I know that it touches several of us in Richmond -- individuals who have sensed tired as well as lost hope for such a long time have received a new energy. I view it in their face, inside their huge smiles, inside their chats as well as inquiries: If it improves? I say that, Of course!
I stand in Richmond election being a member of legal and also constructive change and also development. I have the experience of urgency gone through by several - families of patients of homicide and also affected individuals of aggressive offense, kids with symptoms of asthma as well as depressed moms and dads of frustrated young guys. I am going to call every and also each of the citizen of Richmond. I am going to work extremely challenging for the duration of my own tenure being a Metropolis Authority associate to move forward plans that can make this town far better, far healthier and also far more successful.
