Change in nonelected top city administration

By Gary Nemeth

Candidate for Mayor; City of Paso Robles

This information is provided by the candidate
Removing the City Manager and City Attorney
I am the WRITE IN GARY NEMETH candidate FOR MAYOR. I filed the papers on Oct 10th. Since then I have walked our neighborhoods, taken the city tours and participated in the forums I was invited to take part in. On the tours I missed two of the incumbents as they never attended to see what a mess they have left us with.

I have gained some great insight from our city employees and the stress they work under. Short staffed in every department with the exception of supervision, the "boots" on the ground are feeling it the most. I am fortunate to listen to current staff and prior staff members who left in good graces who will speak freely with me.

I have been able to listen and speak with citizens all over our community and from all age groups. Some of the comments from their view of the forum and what they saw on CPRN2012 and the questions/answers. Some from the article in Paso Robles Press Election 2012 guide, my answers vs. the incumbent.

I will try to answer this question once more; I am A WRITE IN CANDIDATE GARY NEMETH FOR MAYOR. I was informed there was at least one candidate to challenge the incumbent. I want the BEST for Paso, I am very familiar with what happens when three run a race, usually the incumbent wins. Even though I felt I was the best qualified for Mayor, I waited it out as I wanted the best outcome for the city we have grown to love. When no one came forward to challenge, I took out papers for a write in candidate.

I would ask you the citizens of Paso if you believe: IS OUR CITY OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, AND FOR THE PEOPLE?

I was raised to believe that the order of rule was the citizens first, then the city council, then the city manager. I believe that there are some in our city that vote to keep the status quo, they want to change the order of government so the unelected take over. Remember what happens if you, the citizen, are willing to give up absolute power, it does corrupt absolutely!

I DO need your trust and confidence that together we can and will make a difference, WALK your neighborhood CALL your friends and everyone you know in Paso, ASK them to:

WRITE IN
GARY NEMETH FOR MAYOR.
