Electing Nick Glew for mayor is the right choice for Marion's future.
Nick has a wonderful track record for moving Marion forward while keeping all of its citizens in mind, including the business community. Nick worked hard on the business community's behalf to compromise on the stormwater utility that significantly reduced the burden on commercial property owners. It is critical to have a mayor who listens to what the people want and is willing to course correct when the community speaks. He also supported the local-option sales tax both times, which would lessen the burden on all property taxpayers and ensure a bright future for everyone.
