Ready On Day One
I am Jennifer Macksey. Welcome to my Macksey for Mayor Website.
Many of you already know me as your friend, neighbor, colleague, and patron of your business. For those of you who haven’t met me, I am excited for this opportunity to introduce myself.
I was born, raised, educated and work in North Adams. My community is your community. We know our City has much to offer. Still, like many cities, some areas need improvement; other areas need growth. My extensive experience in municipal government and education has prepared me well to tackle these tasks as the next Mayor — your mayor — of North Adams.
What does it take to move our City forward? North Adams deserves strong leadership that measures and balances the needs of every resident. I am well prepared for this role. I will work to gain the confidence of every population in our City. I understand the issues North Adams faces, and I will listen to and represent all voices because my City is your City.
As citizens, you should expect much more from our elected leaders—true transparency, more consultation and more careful planning. I will restore accountability with my leadership style, organizational management, and communication skills. I will develop clear policies and initiatives for our City. Be assured, as Mayor I will tackle all issues straight on while keeping you and all community members apprised. Under my leadership, City government will be run ethically. I will work with employees, elected councilors, appointed board members, and—when necessary—other officials to raise North Adams up and improve overall quality of life. Like you, I want to attract more commercial business and ensure visitors enjoy their time here and feel good about our City. North Adams needs a forward-thinking leader. I am that person. A known problem solver, I take action and create solid plans. Tough yet compassionate and fair. I will not sell this City short.
The time is now to focus on viable plans for safe neighborhoods, a vibrant downtown, environmental concerns, and quality of life for all citizens. It is time to address the infrastructure demands and the Public Safety facility. I am committed to quality education for all students, after-school programming, and youth extracurricular opportunities. I am prepared and ready to work 24/7 to meet the challenges that lie ahead. I would be honored to have your vote.
We hope you will join our campaign by volunteering, donating, and helping any way possible.
