Matt Kelty for Mayor

Jenn & I submitted the following letter to Fort Wayne Newspapers on Tuesday...

Dear Editor,

We've seen Mr. Peters' TV commercial touting his "experience." While we applaud his commitment to serving the people of Fort Wayne the past 20 years, we can ill-afford more of the same.

Recent actions by those with "experience" have been hostile to area businesses. Harrison Square was passed against the will of the people because those with "experience" assumed they knew better. The Smoking Ordinance cost local businesses untold thousands of dollars. Those with "experience" forced area restaurants to create separate smoking areas, only to change their minds a few years later with more restrictions and regulations. What a waste.

How many more employers must leave our area before we realize the current approach doesn't work? How many more jobs must be lost to better corporate opportunities in other communities? If "experience" means continuing to do the same thing but expecting different results, we believe another word is more appropriate.

Matt Kelty's vision is the prescription for what ails our great city. Fort Wayne will attract new business by streamlining its infrastructure, empowering corporations and new ventures with less regulation and red tape, and most important - getting out of the way. Matt Kelty brings fresh ideas, perspective and leadership to the mayoral office. On May 8th, join our family and vote for Matt Kelty, a True Conservative.

David A. & Jennifer MacDonald
