Hello, my name is Gerry Lee and it is my honor to announce my intent to represent the good people of Clearwater as a City Commissioner. I believe in a government by the people, for the people.
What dose that mean? Well for starters, I consider myself the people. I have lived in the city of Clearwater for 35 years after relocating from my home state of Indiana with my lovely wife Linda. I have raised two wonderful children Drue and LaBree in Clearwater. I have worked, worship...ped, and recreated in Clearwater. I have laughed, cried, and experienced triumph and tragedy with my Clearwater neighbors. Clearwater has given me and my family a wonderful life. Being I believe in servitude leadership I feel it is time for me to give back to the city that has given to me.
So, what do I believe I can do to serve Clearwater? Well, let’s see:
1. First and foremost I believe we should protect our family and our neighbors. I believe that Police, Fire, and Emergency services should always be a priority in any discussion about city government.
2. I believe in fiscal responsibility and stewardship. We must create a Clearwater that we enjoy but also ensure that we plan for our tomorrow.
3. I believe in a city that we can not only enjoy but are proud to share with not only our family but the world!
4. I believe in a government for the people, by the people. I believe in a citizen governing model that inspires involvement and embraces input from it’s people.
5. Above all I believe in a city that everyone can reap the wonderful experience that it has given me.
Your Clearwater elected officials have done a wonderful job. My opponent has and can continue to do a great job. But….. I believe we can do better!
