Moore listens to people of Mount Vernon

Nov. 5, 2011 1:22 pm
A vote for James Moore for Mount Vernon mayor is a vote for fiscal integrity. Jim has been a successful businessman for many years while serving on the Mount Vernon Fire Department for 25 years and the Mount Vernon Emergency Management team for more than 30 years. As a City Council member for seven years, Jim consistently used wise judgment, always with the town's best interests at heart.
As a council member, he was fervent in seeking an annual ongoing allocation of money for streets. Jim always has listened to the people and done what is best for the community as a whole. He has the knowledge and experience we need to lead responsibly.
Jim believes in doing everything in his power to encourage continued growth and development that will ensure our family-oriented, small-town flavor.
