A message from Rick:

I have spent the past several years fighting for better government on Marco Island, not because I have anything personal to gain, but because this community deserves better than what it has been getting. Good government does not happen by accident. It takes engaged citizens, honest leadership, and yes, some resources to get the message out.

I am running for City Council because I believe Marco Island deserves better fiscal stewardship, genuine transparency, and leaders who answer to residents rather than insiders.

I have committed my own money to this effort because that is what conviction looks like. Running for City Council costs money. Postcards, yard signs, events, other promotional material and outreach add up to real dollars, and every dollar goes directly to reaching voters who deserve to hear a different message about how Marco Island can and should be governed.

If you share my concerns about responsible stewardship of taxpayer dollars, water quality, and honest leadership, I am asking you to consider a contribution. This is not about me. It is about the community we all share. I hope you will join me.
