One thing guaranteed, there will be a new alderman representing the West Ward at the April Board of Alderman meeting. The current incumbent, Steve Clark, is taking a run for WL Mayor, so one of the two men on the ballot will represent the West Side. The question is which one?
Don Hoy has thrown his hat in the ring, he and wife Mary have lived here for 18 years. His campaign slogan is, "Ship a Hoy to City Hall". If that sounds familiar, it is similar to Mary's slogan in her runs for West Ward Alderman. That might be his claim to fame, Mary's husband. Don's flyer describes himself as "An Independent voice ready to WORK FOR YOU". His Weatherby Lake Living Newsletter article states, "A good Alderman will truly represent the citizens and I pledge to do just that".
His list of Governmental Experience on his flyer is a little difficult to decipher, most of the citations do not have a time frame of his experience/service. Not that it is a particular problem, just what does that mean as far as serving as an alderman?
It is good to see citizens step up and take a shot at elective office, it is rather thankless, but very important to keep our little piece of paradise running smoothly. We will see if West Siders Ship a Hoy to City Hall.
