Herwig will keep Coralville on right track

Please help re-elect Henry Herwig to the Coralville City Council. Our current Coralville government is working well. Our city maintains a Standard & Poor's financial strength rating that is one of the highest in the entire state of Iowa. Just recently, Coralville was named a 2009 Iowa Great Place.
In addition to shining a spotlight on the area, this recognition awards Coralville additional consideration when applying for state grants for projects included in the community's Great Place proposal. The growth our city continues to experience has been matched by the vision and effective leadership of our city officials.
Look around. If you like what you see as much as I do, we will do well by re-electing Henry. With 36 years of continuous service to the city, including the last 16 as a member of the council, Henry is a valuable and uniquely qualified representative of the citizenry of Coralville.
