Arnold for Alder

Welcome to my campaign Web site! Here I explain my history, what I believe, and my vision for Fitchburg.

As a result of the election of April 7, 2009, I am serving my third two-year term on the Fitchburg Common Council, District 4, Seat 7. I received 889 votes to my challenger's 501 votes. My hopes and plans for Fitchburg are expressed in my platform letter, which was mailed or delivered to all the addresses in the district the week before election day.

Please feel free to send me your questions and suggestions.

Platform

I will work to make Fitchburg ever more beautiful, livable, and sustainable for all residents, now and in the future. I stand for:

Financial responsibility: delivering the services you demand at the lowest possible tax rates
Sustainable land use: preserving the land we love for generations to come while protecting the rights of land owners
Health and safety: protecting every resident
Open government: financing my campaign and making decisions in public view with public input

I admit to being a New Urbanist. NU principles motivate all my work in Fitchburg city government. For a three minute intruduction to NU, watch Built To Last. For more, read the Charter of the New Urbanism. New!
