In order to start things properly, an introduction is required; my name is Christopher Fischer, and I am running for the office of Commissioner in the City of Zion, Illinois.
Even small governments make big decisions. The people we elect to make those decisions, should be good stewards of the public trust, unbiased, not hidebound to ideology, or subject to special interests.
It is that spirit of public service, tempered with objectivity and independence that I hope to bring to the City Council if I am elected Commissioner next April.
Between now and election day, April 9, 2013, this blog will be the platform I use to; provide some personal background, state my reasons for seeking the office, and detail proposals that I believe will help Zion move towards a better future.
I also hope that this page, along with the campaign Facebook page ( http://www.facebook.com/FischerForZion ) will become a forum for the exchange of ideas and information about Zion, what's good, bad, and how we can build for the future.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Christopher Fischer
