Erik, it’s great to see you always promoting and attending events throughout the city as well as coming up with new ones. You’re doing a great job! I’m not trying to say anything bad or sound negative about the last mayor because I never knew him but the only time I’ve ever seen him was in the heritage days parade. Keep up the good work!
