Candidate announcement: Bonnie Leonard, Morgan City Council

I am Bonnie Leonard, your District 2 councilwoman, and ask for your consideration, support and vote so I can continue serving our community.
Thirty four years ago I met and married my husband, Ed Leonard. Together we have four children and five grandchildren. I currently manage our real estate properties in District 2.
I was instrumental in bringing the Main Street Program to Morgan City and served on its first Board of Directors. It continues doing a wonderful job with plans for many new community projects.
I was approached and asked if I would consider being the interim council member for District 2.
I was eager to accept and am grateful to the Council and Mayor for their approval.
Since serving on the council I have fallen in love with the work and the opportunity to contribute.
I am now asking to serve for a full term. I am dedicated to working with the administration and
council for the betterment of our community.
I bring to the council my time, ability, life and work experience, and a woman’s perspective. As only the sixth woman to serve on the City Council since incorporation in 1860,and the first to serve in the last twenty two years, I look forward to continuing to serve.
Morgan City is a great place to live and work; our people and our waterways are its greatest asset and serving the city and its people is a pleasure.
I commit to the city to always be available to respond to community needs and wishes; to propose to the mayor and council new ideas for the betterment of the city; to study, discuss, ask questions, and to always exercise my independent vote as a council member in the best interest of our community.
I look forward to meeting you as the campaign continues.
I humbly ask for your vote November 5th.
Bonnie Leonard Number16 on your ballot.
