City of Monmouth Mayor Rod Davies is seeking another term in the April 6th election. Davies is currently serving in his 16th year as Mayor and explains why he is inspired to seek another term:
“I think I have gained a lot of expertise as a CPA and I felt that I had that expertise in government and government finance and understanding the restrictions and requirements and limited uses of certain funds and I wanted to bring that experience to Monmouth and help to grow our community. Help to make it a great home to raise families, to make it a good host community for our employers, like the hospital to help them recruit doctors and administrators they need, to Monmouth College, and Smithfield. Also, I was interested in revitalizing and growing in helping the small businesses come back to Monmouth and just generally revitalizing our downtown, saving our historic buildings, and also trying to meet the needs of our infrastructure because infrastructure is the key to future growth and development.”
