I know that our vision for the future of Charlotte is resonating with voters, and couldn’t be more proud to receive the endorsement of the Charlotte Observer Editorial Board, and to finish this primary out strong. In a lot of ways, I am Charlotte’s story, from growing up in one of the roughest parts in the city off of West Boulevard, to having a successful career at a non-profit, to helping lead important discussion and action on Charlotte’s most pressing issues, to being poised to lead this great city forward. I couldn’t be more energized by the support I’ve received from across Charlotte, from people like former Mayors Harvey Gantt and Eddie Knox, to the Charlotte Black Political Caucus, to former Chairman of Bank of America Hugh McColl, and now the Charlotte Observer Editorial Board.” Councilman David Howard Howard for Mayor http://www.charlotteobserver.com/…/edi…/article34094691.html Editorial: Howard, Peacock for Charlotte mayor The Charlotte Observer's editorial board makes its endorsement for Charlotte's mayoral primaries. www.charlotteobserver.com Like Comment Share September 7th 2015 Report Reply

David was always responsive to issues and concerns in Madison Park when I was president. He took time to actually come out and drive the neighborhood to see things like the excessive height of the radio tower that use to extend 72 feet in the air on Farmbrook. (He agreed with me, and was instrumental in getting that lowered to 40 feet which is all the ordinance allowed in Charlotte). He also checked out planned sidewalks for the community, and many other things over the many years he has served as City Council @ large. If you e-mailed him you knew you would get an answer. He also always supported our National Night Out event with his wallet and attending meeetings of the HOA when he was able in the summer. Although I like the other Democratic Candidates I personally Think the City of Charlotte would be best off with David severing as our Mayor. He has a great understanding of what the City of Charlotte does and how to get it done. I encourage our Democratic neighbors as a resident of Madison Park to Vote for David during early voting now, or on Sept. 15, 2015. He is deserving of your votes.
