Bill Rice
for Council At-Large
August 10, 1998
Dear Commissioner:
My campaign is based on restoring and promoting the integrity of our
neighborhoods. While on the Council, I will push for smart growth in our residential and
our economic districts.
ANCs are a critical part of this policy. As a full-time councilmember, I
will work closely with ANCs. Surplus funds should be used to this end. Regardless of the
eventual outcome of the debate in Congress over ANC financing, the recommendations of ANCs
will always remain an integral part in our fight to revitalize this city.
Over the course of the campaign, I am happy to say that I have been
defining much of the debate. Issues I introduced to this campaign have been picked up by
other candidates. These include the abolishment of the MCI/arena tax, strengthening the DC
Auditor, reforming parking ticket policies, and shaping our educational system to promote
lifelong learning. My campaign has mailed to, phoned, and canvassed all over the District,
and my message has been met with a positive response in all parts of the city.
I seek your input, your advise, and your support as I continue to work
toward the common goal of restoring our neighborhoods.
Sincerely yours,
Bill Rice
