For Immediate Release

John S. Harris, 63, a long time resident of the Salisbury area announces his candidacy for City Council. As a businessman, he feels the City should be run like a business. He feels the Mayor and Council should be accountable to the stockholders of the City-the taxpayers. He believes in clear, open and honest government.

GOALS:

1. CRIME- Take back the streets of Salisbury by increasing the funding for the Police Department for whatever is necessary to do the job. If management is not up to the task, then find someone else who is.

2. BLIGHT- Attack blight wherever and whoever is feeding it in out City. Crime breeds blight. Blight breeds crime. Correct these and we can have affordable housing where our people will not be afraid to reside. Safer neighborhoods, affordable housing and lack of blight will help remove Salisbury from the list of 20 most dangerous cities.

3. JOBS- Create a business-friendly city for both small and large companies so that the young and old can become employed.

Mr. Harris is not a single issue candidate. He looks at the issues that effect the whole community, not single issues that effect a selected population. He also believes in the people of his community and is dedicated to listening to their views, concerns and ideas so that we can all make Salisbury a city it deserves to be.
