‘If I led my community …’
Do you like the community you live in? Sometimes I feel like there is a lot of things that I could do to improve my community. That is why, if I led my community, I would change many things.
The first thing that I would do after I got elected is get the people’s opinion on what they would like to see happen with the town. I would also propose the idea of building a new building in town where small businesses could rent out their own shops. This idea would help raise the amount of money our community would have to spend on things such as: improving roads to reduce the number of crashes in this area, building new parks to make the scenery nicer, and funding more programs through the parks and recreation department. I would also propose a law that would raise the fine for littering, in hopes that all the great scenery in Maine wouldn’t get ruined.
I would try to make my community feel more like their home to all of the people living in it, and I would also give my people the decisions on how things would be. I would try to keep things small, and family-owned and -operated, so that our community wouldn’t be focused on making money and earning recognition, so much as just knowing your neighbor’s name. I would make sure that everyone in my community was cared for, that they had essentials such as food, water, clothes and hygiene products, and I would make sure that there was always someone that they could rely on. I would try to make my community also a nicer place by reducing crime and putting more of the town’s funding into the police system in hopes that there would eventually be little or no crime in my community.
Overall, I would just make my community a safer, nicer place to live, in hopes that people would be attracted here, and that the people that are already living here love it.
