Mason City
Summary
I am a recently retired teacher who has moved back to her hometown to help care for my mom. I am passionate about keeping Mason City an awesome city to grow up in. I want my hometown to be somewhere people will want to move to, and raise their children. The upkeep of homes and yards needs to be a priority; who would want to live here if the town is a mess? I am interested in the city ordinance position, and I hope you would consider me for the position.
