A Letter To The Editor: Change In Salisbury

We can ALL agree we need change in Salisbury.

As I was pondering this i came to realize, how? How does anyone find out what roles are available if they want to be involved in the system of change?

We know the mayor's seat is up for grabs but what else is coming due as well as what roles are there to play in the city or county to help make this change a reality.

I am fairly certain more people have thought the same thing I have, How does someone even find out the process of what options they have? Lets say someone would like to run for mayor, where is the information found to get pertinent facts? I understand we have a board of elections but do you have to go there to start the process? is there a website that can give all the requirements, all the information on the role of the mayor (or any other position desired), income expectations etc?

Basically what is the process to run for office, council etc.?

I think if more people understood the process and how to research the options they may choose to help our city get back to the city we all hoped it could be.

Your thoughts?

For information, just call the mayor's office and speak with the secretary. She'll provide you with all of it. It's not a secret.
