Thomas R. Bowman Announces Candidacy for Kennesaw City Council Post 5

Kennesaw, GA Longtime logistics manager and local resident Thomas R. Bowman has officially entered the race for Kennesaw City Council Post 5, bringing a platform focused on transparency, public safety, infrastructure, and protecting local homeowners.

“My goal is simple: keep Kennesaw moving forward without losing what makes it feel like home,” Bowman said. “I’m not here to play politics. I’m here to bring practical leadership that focuses on what actually matters to our community.”

Bowman has spent over 30 years in the transportation and logistics industry, managing teams, solving complex operations problems, and ensuring frontline workers are heard. He currently serves as an operations manager for a national transportation company and manages accounts across multiple states.

His campaign is centered around five core priorities:

• Housing and Homeownership: Bowman supports a feasibility study into reducing corporate real estate buying in Kennesaw and aims to promote policies that keep housing diverse, affordable, and accessible for local residents.
• Public Safety: He proposes a full audit of the city’s police staffing and response data, along with increased investment in ongoing officer training and community-based initiatives to build long-term trust.
• Support for Local Businesses: Bowman plans to streamline licensing, cut red tape, and develop programs that support minority-owned and homegrown small businesses.
• Transparent Government: He promises open communication, regular town halls, and a publicly accessible weekly agenda so residents always know what’s being debated and why.
• Focus on Core Services: Bowman pledges to keep council time and taxpayer dollars focused on infrastructure, housing, safety, and city growth, not distractions.
