H Dan Adams for Evansville City Council at Large

H. Dan Adams Council At Large

Back To Basics

Four years ago, I promised you, the people of Evansville, that I would serve you with Leadership, Vision, and Accountability. Over that time, if you have closely followed the Evansville City Council's proceedings, you would have seen that I have delivered on my promises. For example, last year when many were willing to allow two fire stations to be closed without supporting data, I fought hard to prevent that misguided decision! Times change... and we are confronted with a new situation.

Now is the time to get back to basics

We have invested a huge amount of money in the Downtown. It is now time for us to stop spending money on big glitzy projects and make sure the Downtown investment gives us a superb return for all of Evansville.

We need to allow:

  • Full benefit of the newly annexed property taxes to kick in
  • Creation of new jobs
  • Robert's Stadium to be reinvented
  • Effect of caps on property taxes to be seen
  • Economy to recover
  • Rebound of sales tax to flow
  • ...Let's just pause to catch our financial breath

NOW we need to concentrate on:

  • Supporting police
  • Aiding fire fighters
  • Cashing-in on trash collection
  • Reviving our barely surviving parks
  • ...Just the basics!

And above all, we need a marked improvement in transparency of government in everything we do. Click here to learn more >> I need your support and vote for me to continue the fight. Together, we can make a better Evansville!
