Allen for Troy City Council

10:22 am on Saturday, November 5, 2011

To the Citizens of Troy Michigan,
Even though I'm new to the political scene, I’m not new to the Leadership role. I am a Disabled American Veteran from the war in Afghanistan. I think outside of the box and I am fresh blood to our city council position. I would like to see Saturday hours at our library, along with our cities safety is #1. I will restore honesty and integrity to our city council. Personal integrity is the key to public integrity. As a married, church going man with four children, I not only have personal integrity, but also honesty and loyalty.
Please check out my web site at www.allenfortroy.com, Facebook at “Allen for Troy City Council” or call me (248) 643-6003 for any further questions.
