    I am thrilled and excited to be running for Johns Creek City Council Post 3.  This note is to highlight WHY I am running, HOW I will conduct myself and WHAT you can expect from me.

    WHY I am running:

    I am running because I know I can help us transition Johns Creek from a startup city to a mature city.  I have very unique set of skills and those skill sets are directly related to the requirements of a City Council Member and the issues facing Johns Creek now and in the future.  I have helped community leadership, residents and businesses for 25 years navigate the same issues we face:

    • Residential involvement and inclusion
    • Land use planning
    • Zoning and Permitting
    • Transportation
    • Infrastructure
    • Organizational Development
    • Policies and procedures
    • Economic base development
    • Tax digest content
    • Mayor and Council education, coaching and facilitation
    • Workforce Development
    • Millennial retention and attraction
    • Aging population

    I know I can help us because I have done this before, many times, for 25 years.

    HOW I will conduct myself:

    I am an extremely consistent person, steady, unwavering, but willing to compromise when it is clear that is required to lead to the optimal outcome for all.  Below are things you can expect from me, I will:

    • Find common ground and work together
    • Ask questions
    • Do my research
    • Ask questions again
    • Bring outside the box, proven sustainable ideas to Johns Creek
    • Make decisions that are in the best interest of our residents, businesses, and schools

    WHAT you can expect from me:

    The following are a few of the qualities you can expect from me when I am your Council Member. I am:

    • A visionary
    • Focused on a holistic approach
    • Level headed
    • Passionate in the pursuit of answers
    • Focused on fact-based decision making
    • Steadfast
    • Calm
    • Collaborative
    • A leader who leads by example
    • Functional in my approach
    • Authentic, consistent and congruent
    • A "bridge builder"
    • A person who will always hold my Council Mates and myself accountable

    I will do the job you have asked me to do in the time frame you elect me to serve.

    EXPERIENCE AND PLATFORM:

    If you review and appreciate my qualifications and experience, resonate with my goals and respect the way I conduct myself then I would be honored to receive your vote.

    When elected, I promise to serve and execute the duties and position of Council Member to the best of my ability with integrity. I will work with the Council, City Staff, and other City leadership to shape the future of Johns Creek into a Community that exceeds the expectations of its residents, businesses, and visitors.

    One final thought, first and foremost, we are ALL residents of Johns Creek, unified in our love for our community and our wishes for its prosperous future. I am one of us and I will represent all of us to the best of my ability.

    This is my commitment to you.

    Respectfully,

    Vicki
