I want everyone to know my views for running  for city commission.  So I can let it be known to many people.  Please let others know to vote for Edmond Schwab City Commission on November 7, 2006!

 

A vote for Mr. Schwab on November 7th 2006 is a vote for the following:

 

Continued Economic growth and maintaining a high standard of living:  While many persons in our community did not wholeheartedly support the Kentucky Tri-Modal Transpark, it is here and will result in the creation of many jobs in the manufacturing and transportation sector. To not fully back it up once it has moved forward would be a disaster and would sell short our economic potential for the future, real jobs for the citizens of Bowling Green. Bowling Greeen Metalforming, just one plant to come in already, has resulted in thousands of jobs, both directly tied to it and indirectly connected to it.  The full job growth potential of the KTT is in excess of 30,000 new jobs for persons in Bowling Green/Warren County.

 

Municipal Regulatory Reform:  In recent years, certain arms of city government have grown a heavy hand in dealing with the citizens and how they handle their property. The unreasonable intrusions and harassment by Codes Enforcement must come to a halt. Also, I support mandating by ordinance no eminent domain seizures for private development.

 

Pre-Pay no more:  While it is arguably a wise policy for gas stations to have customers pre-pay for their gas, it is not the place of government to dictate it at any level. The pre-pay ordinance is bad law and will only result in reduced spending at convenience stores, reducing the tax base for our fair city.

 

Eliminating bad or outdated ordinances/Kicking out Special Interests:   Did you know it is illegal to drive horseless carriages on the square in Bowling Green? That and other such outdated laws have been kept on the books as leverage by special interests in the community to force their will at commission meetings. These outdated laws need to be repealed at the earliest possible opportunity. 

 

Protecting individual Rights:  I will fight vehemently against any smoke-free ordinance drawn up similar to laws in Lexington or New York. 

 

Illegal ImmigrationAs your city commissioner, I will introduce ordinances directed at employers knowingly hiring illegal aliens.

 

 

Bowling Green families are MY special Interest.
