Aldermen From District 5's Past Ask for A Change For the Future

John Engelhardt should replace Dan Soltysiak, say several former aldermen from Muskego's 5th District.

To the Editor/District 5 Residents,

We are writing you to give our strong support to John Engelhardt for District 5 Alderman.

John Engelhardt possesses the maturity, ethics, fiscal restraint and has the leadership qualities to represent District 5 on the common council. For the past 23 years John Engelhardt has made Muskego his home. He has raised a family here, built a church and devoted his life to serving our community. As a fiscal conservative, John knows the value of a dollar and will make sure that each taxpayer dollar is spent wisely. More importantly, John Engelhardt will not simply vote “No” or “Yes” on proposals, simply based on whose idea it is. He will analyze issues, give input and alternative solutions and vote how his constituents want him to. John knows that he will be working for you, the taxpayers of District 5.

John Engelhardt is also committed to building our business tax base, to help relieve property taxes for families and homeowners.

We believe John Engelhardt will help end the dysfunctional working relationship that a few members of this current city council have fostered over the past two years. Government is about lively, vigorous debate of the issues, but when all is done, it should not be turned into personal attacks and political alliances at the expense of those you were elected to represent. We believe John Engelhardt will put an end to those tactics and move Muskego forward in a positive direction.
