It has been two years since I decided to remove myself from the political scene in Mount Rainier, MD, Prince George's County, and the State of Maryland. Holding the lofty position of Mayor was such a great honor, but as the years flew by, I realized that it was time to do something else -- get a life.! I did, and still continue to provide resources to the residents through The Front Porch Ministries (TFPM). Real people pass through The Front Porch Ministries weekly. LIFE is good.

THE ELECTION IS OVER!
Under the professional and talented leadership of the Mount Rainier Board of Elections, the 2015 Mount Rainier Election came to an end with the election of three new Councilmembers-elect! The un-certified votes shw the re-election of Councilmember Bryan Knedler, the new election of Councilmembers Tracy Loh Ward 1 and new Councilmember-elect Savali Shah Ward 2. THANK YOU TO ALL RESIDENTS WHO CAME OUT TO VOTE! THANK YOU TO ALL OF THE CANDIDATES WHO PUT THEMSELVES OUT THERE UNDER PUBLIC SCRUTINY TO SERVE OUR CITY! All of you showed your civic pride.
As a long-time resident of Mount Rainier and a homeowner, it is important to me that municipal government be inclusive of all of its residents.
It is equally important that information be communicated through all possible channel so that residents can get involved.
It is also important for residents to volunteer and serve on committees, commissions, boards and task forces.
I truly believe that municipal government is the government closes to the people, and as such should be easily accessible.
This BLOG is another effort to reach out to the residents of Mount Rainier.
