Georgia Brown has announced that she is running for Fishers City Council North Central District (District Three).
Brown has been a resident of Fishers for 30 years and said she is running for City Council for three reasons: to ensure public safety, invest in the community’s future, and stand for neighborhood values.
“I love my community and care deeply about our city,” she said.
Brown said she believes in limited government and fiscal responsibility.
“Government should live within its means, protect its citizens and work with the school system to provide excellent education,” she said.
Brown has spent her career working as an investigator and for the Indianapolis Police Dept. and said she has a particular interest in public safety.
“Fishers is growing, and crime is grown,” she said. “I have lived here a long time and I want to make sure resources are spent on public safety before buildings downtown that only add congestion.”
Brown said she believes that experience with the community must be an essential part of its leadership.
“There are a lot of new fresh faces in Fishers, which is good,” she said. “But I also think it is important that leaders understand the history of this community, the schools, and its character.”
Brown said she adamantly believes resources should be allocated to essential services and managed growth before pet projects. She explained that, if elected, she will be the keeper of the Fishers Fire and Police departments and schools.
“Our schools are in fiscal crises,” she said. “Seeing the land giveaways and corporate welfare is disturbing. We have lost our way when we are having a new referendum ever year while continuing to bribe developers to do business in Fishers.”
Brown said she is committed to making sure that the things that made Fishers so attractive to so many folks continues to be focal points as growth continues.
Brown said her 35 years of experience working with law enforcement (including the Indianapolis Police Dept. and Marion County Prosecutor’s Office), is an invaluable asset as our Fishers community grows.
