Scheuermann running for Council
My name is Meredith Scheuermann and I am running for City Council.
2005 will bring us great challenges as we continue to move forward and invest in our city. This investment not only includes new amenities, but it also includes basic repairing of streets that have gone bad, redoing sewers that no longer function to capacity and sustaining arts and culture that help make Oshkosh what it is.
Doing this is no easy task. It takes dedicated council members with the vision to unite, to continue moving Oshkosh forward. Specifically, this means opening lines of communication so that negotiations can take place, this means thinking differently i.e. not doing things because we always did them that way, having the backbone to ask really, tough questions in face of adversity and finally, having the experience and the capacity to understand and distribute a $58 million plus budget. I can and will do all of these.
Born in Oshkosh, I graduated from UW-Oshkosh with a Speech Communication and Spanish degree. My career located me outside of Oshkosh. First, I lived in Minnesota and then in Chicago and it was when I returned to Oshkosh 10 years ago, when I realized how really great Oshkosh is. My husband is a middle school teacher and we have 3 fantastic kids. I am the Manager at US Bank in downtown Oshkosh and volunteer on 7 Boards in this community including City of Oshkosh Zoning Board of Appeals, Friends of OCAT, and Propel among others.
Please take time to get to know your candidates and ask each of us, what out future vision is? We spend so much time talking about activities that have happened when we should be focused on making sure we do things right as we go forward. Won’t you join me in a positive vision for Oshkosh? Please vote for Meredith Scheuermann on February 15.
