Statement of K. A. MIKE GILROY, Candidate for Mayor Occupation: International Business Consultant Age: 61 Education and Qualifications: I want all of us to work together toward making our city one of the greatest places in the country to raise a family. This means we must have good public schools, a low crime rate, reasonable cost housing, a clean environment, low drug and alcohol abuse rates, varied and quality youth and senior programs, and good paying jobs that are suitable for our work force. During the past six years as your City Councilman, I have tried to inject common sense into every city decision, to be accessible, to listen to your concerns, to return your phone calls and to follow through on all issues or requests for action. I have carefully scrutinized every city expenditure and have attempted to fairly and impartially represent all segments of our community. I look forward to the opportunity of serving you as your mayor. 1997 Chamber of Commerce Volunteer of the Year B.S.
