Bob Poeschl has officially announced his bid for Oshkosh Common Council.
The top priority of Poeschl's campaign is a shift in spending priorities to represent the needs and interests of the Oshkosh taxpayers. According to Poeschl, "The question needs to be raised - should the city be spending money on the outdoor Amphitheater and restrooms while city property taxes are being increased, city street lights are being removed and the public pool has closed."
Poeschl, a lifelong resident of Oshkosh, is a graduate of Oshkosh West High School and a former University of Wisconsin Oshkosh student. Currently he works for Americorps, sustaining community outreach and enriching program development with the Boys and Girls Club of Oshkosh.
Poeschl is the founder and director of the Winnebago Peace and Justice Center, a local community education and activist center. He received the prestigious Wisconsin Peacemaker Award in 2004 from the Wisconsin Network for Peace and Justice. Poeschl was also recently honored with the Oshkosh Diversity Award from the Human Relations Council for his outstanding commitment to supporting diversity in the Oshkosh Community.
The campaign kickoff rally for Poeschl is Saturday, January 8 at the New Moon Cafe from 10:00am to 11:30am.

Way to go Bob! It is about time that someone, who comes from a background of economic harship, is willing to represent the city of Oshkosh. We need more people like him to stand up and say that the City Council has to be held accountable for the actions the bring forth. We cannot afford to have careless spending of our tax dollars. Meanwhile, our taxes are being raised and our pools are being closed. Where was my opinion in this decision? Good luck to you Bob! You have my vote!
