Dear Fellow Residents:

Atlanta has been my home for over four decades.

I have watched with disgust over the years as city administrations have increased the tax burden on all of us and squandered these revenues through corrupt dealings, mismanagement and foolish endeavors, all the while the services we pay for have been reduced and the crime in our city has increased.

It is my intent to change this.

I am a licensed Professional Engineer and have over twenty-five years experience operating businesses and creating jobs. I will use my engineering and business experience to bring integrity and financial stability back to our city and provide a better quality of life for all Atlanta residents.

If you elect me to serve as your mayor of Atlanta, I will do the following:

1. Audit every department to cut the waste of the taxpayers’ money and bring fiscal responsibility back to city government.

2. Privatize services where appropriate.

3. Amend contracts with the Atlanta Airport so that taxpayers directly benefit from airport business.

4. Encourage competitive bids for suppliers throughout the city.

5. Address the high turnover rate for Atlanta police officers.

6. Enforce vagrancy, panhandling and loitering ordinances throughout the city and require community service for all convicted petty criminals.

Thank you, for your support.

Rufus Terrill, candidate for Mayor of Atlanta
