I had previously highlighted some differences on issues between the other four candidates and myself. I'd like to expand on that a bit with this post. Specifically, I'd like to point out some visibility and approaches to communication I believe are different between us.
As someone who believes in communicating with constituents and providing information related to where I stand on issues or happenings within the community, my opponents are less open.
Let's review a few.

How are folks supposed to know where candidates stand if they can't find out where you actually stand? The League of Women Voter's put together a questionnaire for candidates for St. Cloud City Council and you can see the responses here.
I'll just tell you in advance that I'm the only candidate who completed the survey.
So, you do have a choice this election. Reward those who choose not to share with you where they stand and what they'd like to do, or reward someone like me. Someone who is willing to put in the effort. Someone who is willing to answer questions and put my opinion out there.
It's your choice, St. Cloud.
