I officially become South Milwaukee’s next mayor on Tuesday, April 15, and I am excited to begin bringing my campaign platform to life.
A key plank: enhancing communication. One way I plan to do it — be more accessible to the residents of South Milwaukee.
Along those lines, I am introducing an initiative called “Meet the Mayor.”
Starting next month — and once a month on Saturdays going forward — I’ll bring City Hall to a local business by meeting and greeting local residents through “Meet the Mayor” events. Anything is fair game to discuss.
The first session is from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 10, at Azteca Restaurant, 901 Milwaukee Ave.
I can’t think of a better business to start with. Carlos and Rosie have done great things with their restaurant, and I encourage folks to stop by and see the improvements they’ve made … and try the authentic food.
Look for a more detailed schedule soon. I — and our local business owners — hope to see you.
