This letter is in support of Claudia Johnston-Madison’s candidacy for St. Louis Park City Council.  I have known Claudia for two decades and her commitment to St. Louis Park is unprecedented.  Her record of involvement in the community is outstanding.  Three of Claudia’s attributes would make her an outstanding member of the City Council. They are:

1. Claudia understands the issues. She has lived in this community for decades and has been involved in countless committees.  Over that time, she has developed a solid appreciation for the dynamics that make this community unique.
2. Claudia is committed. She has been a member of the City of St. Louis Park Planning Commission since 2004, member of the SLP/Hennepin County Project management team on relocating freight rail, chair of the Minikahda Vista Neighborhood Association, etc. The list of her involvement is extensive. 
3. Claudia is decisive. In this day and age of when we ask our representatives to get things done, it is important to have someone who will take action. Claudia will get the job done.

I am encouraging everyone to vote on Nov. 8 for Claudia Johnston-Madison. With Claudia’s help, we will be proud to call St. Louis Park home.

Thanks,

Steve May
