| As Mayor of Madison, it is important to me that we continue to bring our city back to life. In my time here we have been able to bring America's Central Port here along with Rivers Edge Terminals, built a new state of the art Fire Station, Green Plains Ethanol Plant, and maintained a clean and beautiful place to raise our families. I am proud of the work we have accomplished and I humbly ask for your vote on April 6th to continue the great things we have accomplished. |
