Jason Miller announces his candidacy for Roswell City Council, Post 1
Good morning, Roswell, and happy Friday! I am excited to announce that I have qualified for the Roswell City Council, Post 1 position in the upcoming election to be held November 7, 2023!
As an entrepreneurial-minded candidate, I will bring over 27 years of business experience to the city. Over 20 years ago, I started my company with simply an idea on how to improve communication within an organization and keep everyone informed of the important details that shouldn't be missed - and the rest is history. I relocated my company to Roswell over a decade ago, and since finding our home in Roswell, we've proudly grown from a start-up into a multi-million-dollar, self-sustaining enterprise. We proudly employee about 30 people, with most of them officing right here in Roswell. Not only does my family live in Roswell, but my entire identity also lives in Roswell. I'm 100%, ALL IN for us to continue growing strategically, attracting and retaining new economic activity, and maintaining Roswell as the perfect place to live, build business, and raise our families.
Over the course of my 27 years in business, along with building my company, I have gained invaluable experience that I am looking forward to applying to my time on the City Council. I am an expert with communication, negotiation, and building support for my ideas. I love finding common ground between opposing positions and viewpoints. I am a strategic thinker, and I excel at finding efficiency and creating better ways of doing things.
This year's election is even more important to me than last year. There are four seats for City Council on the ballot this year, and I strongly believe we, as a city, are at a crossroads for how we advance. Personally, I moved here for exactly what we offer – our preservation of historic assets and areas, Roswell’s smart approach to density to avoid further urbanization, space to stretch out in, and unique access to talented employees located in our region. Before finding home here in Roswell, we lived in Atlanta proper for many years and frankly, it just didn't feel like home and we weren't comfortable with the direction Atlanta was headed - especially considering their unbridled quest for concrete and increased density which was creating unbearable traffic conditions and reducing available greenspace.
Last year during the campaign for the open Post 1 seat, I started with nothing except a dream to give back to the beautiful city I get to call home. I wanted to ensure our community maximizes its potential with smart, strategic growth while driving economic development. I promised to also do my best to bring great jobs to our city. Along the way, we met some AMAZING neighbors who share the same vision as I do, and the support has continued building in the months leading up to the decision to declare my intent to run for Post 1 of the Roswell City Council this year.
This year's race is off to an incredible start so far! With most of the groundwork laid and the learning curve tackled from my prior run, I've been working hard to build consensus among key community leaders and connect with seasoned election professionals.
Please check out my campaign website JasonForRoswell.com to learn more about me, sign up to volunteer, and to contribute to the cause of electing me to City Council to bring an independent mind with zero special interests who wants nothing more than to continue building our special place to live, work, and play.
I'M ALL IN FOR ROSWELL!
