Bednar: Kevin Maxwell’s passion, vision is right for Scottsdale council

Posted

Scottsdale residents have one of the hardest decisions facing them this election season.

Our community has been lacking leadership and vision for many years and we need new City Council leaders to provide the courage and engagement to step up and lead Scottsdale out of this crippling crisis while also bringing our residents and business community together to plan for what the “new” Scottsdale will look like as we rebuild and move forward.

For this reason, I am putting my support into a candidate that is ready, has the ideas that are innovative, is prepared, and has the courage to step up and provide the necessary leadership to lead Scottsdale forward.

That candidate is Kevin Maxwell.

I have known Kevin and his wife, Bronwyn, for over 10-plus years and know how much passion and dedication he has for our community. He had just been appointed Scottsdale Airport Commissioner and was ready to make positive change to one of Scottsdale’s largest job centers, but he wanted to do more.

Therefore, Kevin decided to run for City Council because he has a bigger vision for our community.

We have several residents running for City Council, but many seem to be running based upon a single issue or want our downtown to be stuck in the 1960s.

Many do not have the vision or experience we need on City Council at this time.

Scottsdale is growing and Scottsdale needs to grow in a smart and thoughtful way. Scottsdale needs a leader who has the honesty to tell the residents what it will take to lead us out of this difficult time and we need a person who has the ethics we can trust.

Kevin is that person who will do what is right to keep Scottsdale the beautiful community we all know it is.

Kevin understands what challenges lie ahead. He may not have all of the answers but he is ready to lead and wants to work with our residents and business community leaders to find the best solutions to keep Scottsdale a world-class city.

Scottsdale needs a leader, like Kevin, that has the passion to see an issue through to the end and who will represent each of us. We’ll be proud of the results he can achieve and Scottsdale will be a better place if Kevin Maxwell is on our City Council.

Kevin is the leader we need right now on our Scottsdale City Council. Kevin has my vote and I know he’ll do an incredible job representing us.

He has the strong voice that is needed at this time in Scottsdale’s history.

I ask others to join me in supporting Kevin and encourage your friends and neighbors to vote for Kevin Maxwell for Scottsdale City Council.
