Maria Vera Endorsement for Perth Amboy Re-Imagined

Petrick, Garcia and Cruz-Cortez, in column G

Our town is heading into a downward spiral of poverty and decay. However, there is hope, and the only way to bring this town back is NOT to continue duplicating or repeating the same mistakes made from prior administrations. We can make this happen by voting for Column G: Petrick, Garcia and Cruz-Cortez. What are our candidates’ goals and plans? What is the number one biggest issue?
Hi, my name is Maria Vera. I live on Madison Ave., in Perth Amboy, NJ. I’m here to discuss our town election on November 8. We have three candidates: William Petrick, Maria Garcia, and Alfred Cruz-Cortes.

These candidates want to put the community first. They want to listen and address the issues presented at City council meetings. They want to have and maintain good relationships with city workers. These candidate, Petrick, Garcia and Cruz-Cortez, will listen to the voices of the people in this town. They will focus on bringing our town back to health in the future. They have been studying the facts and the many issues created by former Mayor Awilda Diaz that current Mayor Helmin Caba has exacerbated and repeated.

This ticket, Petrick, Garcia and Cruz-Cortez, column G has been living in this town all their lives and putting good energy into this town by doing the right thing. I am confident, as a team they will be able to accomplish and resolve many issues to move this town forward. Between, Petrick, Garcia and Cortez-Cruz they have been serving our town in various positions, Councilman, Board of Education, Planning and Zoning Board, voluntary organizations like the Salvation Army and Fire Department for over a decade. We live in an old city that has been vastly neglected. They are aware of the problems regarding our infrastructure, streets, drinking water, sewer lines that need to be addressed while protecting the residents from tax increases that we cannot afford. They have the know-how and experience to navigate through all the various obstacles.

They are self-motivated by liking what they do, enough to want to do a good job regardless of the external reward because they care about this Community. They will take 2 feet forward instead of one foot backwards. Their accumulated knowledge and experience outway all of the other candidates combined. Petrick, Garcia and Cortez-Cruz have what it takes to develop our town and make it the jewel that it can be. A vote for them is a vote for people who are going to make decisions that benefit our entire community.
