Support Karen Ellison for Wildomar City Council - District 4

Hi! I'm Karen Ellison and I'm running for Wildomar City Council - District 4. I'm hosting this page to ask for donations to contribute to my campaign to pay for items such as advertisements, lawn signs, materials, hosting events and more.

I'm running for City Council because I believe that municipal government should be advocates for the residents they represent. It’s my personal goal to serve as the advocate for all the residents of Wildomar's District 4 - which means I will listen to all concerns and help to resolve any issue, by introducing residents to key stakeholders, scheduling meetings, hosting meetings and even brainstorming solutions to the issue. I want to represent District 4 with the support that is needed to make our city accountable to the laws and policies it sets. It will also be my commitment to ensure the City of Wildomar aligns with its vision statement: The City of Wildomar will be a safe and active community, responsibly grown, with quality infrastructure while keeping a hometown feel.

I'm very passionate about helping to improve our city. I have seen a strong push to grow our city without regard for improvement or safety of the community, neighborhoods, schools or local businesses. Our city is facing many challenges without plans to fix or make improvements. I want to work with residents and lawmakers to address the low/no income housing and home shelters going in (which is impacting our schools and neighborhoods), the ongoing septic issues, flooding and lack of attention to our roads and community safety. I am committed to ensure all our voices are consistently heard to shape and improve District 4.

As a 25-year communication executive, building and implementing corporate strategies, I want to improve how the city communicates with their constituents to a more personal and direct approach. It’ll be about listening and understanding the issues so we can find solutions or work with necessary stakeholders that can actually help. I have found listening to many residents here in District 4 that the City Council could be more helpful in getting meetings set up with other stakeholders that can help them resolve issues. They have been told to just go talk to so and so... I want to help set up meetings and be involved in discussions with residents and key stakeholders. I'm prepared to get involved and be a real advocate for our District 4 residents.

I also feel there is much need for improved communications for resident-attended city meetings so attendees are clear on items being discussed and what the follow up actions are. I would like to set up better communication avenues to inform residents of things happening in to the city as well as get constructive feedback on events, meetings, projects and new businesses coming into the city.

It's Time for Change in Wildomar for the Better! - District 4
