I’ve lived in 18 cities in the United States and, when I am asked which city did you love the best in the past, it’s always been easy to say the last one I moved to, Chattanooga.
However, recently, I find myself pausing when I ask that question because of how I’ve seen leadership begin failing the people since Volkswagen entered the marketplace. At the time Volkswagen was announced. I was on the Chamber of Commerce for Enterprise South. One of the cities I had lived in was Greenville, South Carolina during the announcement of BMW.
At that time I was also involved in the chamber. I made the statement to leadership and the Chamber, as well as with elected officials that if we did not develop the infrastructure that was coming, it would paralyze the community.
What you ask does that mean? I simply said when you flush the toilet it needs to go somewhere. When a fire takes place you need water and the fire hydrants. As businesses expand so should the infrastructure. In order for those things to happen it takes a leadership.
In the city of Chattanooga and the county of Hamilton there are entrenched groups that get together collectively behind closed doors in order to make decisions based on the elected officials' desires and not the desires of the people.
We need new leadership in our city and our county. One of those positions that needs fresh eyes and new leadership is that of the state executive committee. I will be casting my vote for Derek Greene. He’s not entrenched in the old guard of the GOP.
