I haven't made up my mind yet about who to vote for in the upcoming City Council election, but I'm glad to see that Greg Woodard has declared as an at-large candidate. He would bring a fresh perspective and directness to the Council that it needs.
Greg has been involved in civic life in a low-key way for quite some time, and he's very knowledgeable about city issues. He has a no-nonsense approach to problem-solving and, as a retired military officer, he is not beholden to any special interests.
Greg would not be a "go along to get along" council member, but he wouldn't be a grandstander, either. I think he would ask hard questions when they needed to be asked, and would have the political courage to make hard choices.

We have too many serving already that fit into either of those categories.
Are you considering a run at some point?
Wow. Thanks for asking. I've thought about it, but I don't have the experience or resources at the moment.
You should think out a possible strategy that would put you in to a position to do so by the next election cycle.
The experience deal is not so important at this point.
I know of many local politicians who think they have many years of experience, when in reality they have about one year of experience repeated many times.
