From FBNow.com: Greyling Poats Running Against Allen Owen For Missouri City Mayor
by Bob Dunn, Mar 11, 08:43 am
Businessman Greyling Poats has announced he’ll run for Missouri City mayor against incumbent Allen Owen, who has held the position since 1994. Poats said he filed to run for office on Thursday.
Poats, a long-time insurance representative for State Farm in the Missouri City area, said he decided to run “because the level of apathy in local government has reached a critical mass… It became apparent to me that we needed true local representation on some of the more controversial growth issues ongoing in our community.”
According to his campaign announcement, Greyling, a resident of the city’s Oakwick Forest subdivision, has made numerous appearances before the Missouri City Council on issues “ranging from disparity in development along the FM 2234 corridor to the controversial apartments scheduled to be built this year.”
He said he supports “value-added growth that enhances the quality of life and community over the long term, and will work with the communities most impacted by these growth issues that often get ignored by the current administration under Owen.”
Poats said he met with a community group several months ago and outlined some of the shared concerns they agreed should be addressed during a new administration. These include:
→ “Restoring honesty and integrity to our local council and especially with regard to the administration.”
→ “Retaking local control from the special interests now operating and profiting in our community.”
→ “Pledging not to accept out-of-area special interest contributions and to represent this community’s wants and needs.”
→ “Real tax relief that keeps quality of life as its core principle.”
→ “Reduce disparity in development in some areas of Missouri
City. The focus of a new administration would be on protecting homeowners’ value throughout Missouri City, and not just newer areas.”
→ “A greater concern for the natural environment and development concerns (a more eco friendly strategy
through incentives).”
→ “Review of fast-track privileges for corporations instituting negative PR models here locally.”
→ Long-term planning with real citizen input from area neighborhoods prior to final council decisions/votes.”
→ “And a committee to review the possibility of term limits for all council members.”
Poats said he looks forward to “meeting all my Missouri City neighbors over the next few months of the campaign and listening to the real needs of area residents.”
