Elect Joanie Clausen

Accountable • Committed • Concerned

As a life-long resident who has worked, played, raised a family, and owns a small business in Golden Valley, I care about our community. I’m a candidate in the upcoming election for City Council because I believe it is time for a change, a fresh perspective, and a new direction. During these difficult economic times, it is more important than ever that we are fiscally responsible and do not burden our citizens with unnecessary expenses. I am running because I am totally committed to listening to our citizens’ concerns and acting on those concerns. I have the energy, passion, and commitment to lead our city forward. If elected, I will help improve the quality of our local government, and provide strong, respectful, and responsive leadership. Please join me in a positive campaign to make a real difference at City Hall.

• Golden Valley deserves strong, balanced leadership that listens to each citizen.
• Community participation is necessary to ensure that Golden Valley remains a high quality-of-life city.
• By working respectfully together, we can develop common sense solutions to our city’s problems.
• I believe different points of view are necessary to ensure fair decision-making.
• I will make sure your tax dollars are spent wisely.
• I will work hard to build on Golden Valley’s strengths to meet tomorrow’s challenges.
• The excessive use of consultants must be evaluated.
• Wise redevelopment is a must in our aging city.

FOR BETTER GOVERNMENT IN GOLDEN VALLEY
