I took sometime right after the eletions for R&R with my hubby

 -okay I still had a note pad that I made five long pages of notes of things to do regarding the next four years! 

I am so excited to work on some new things for Lindon and so excited to find like-minded people on the city staff!

2012 is going to be a

great year for Lindon!

Thankful Heart!

Just some of my thoughts today:

For 123 days I worked this campaign relentlessly….through record high heat to bone chilling freezes I walked the streets and lanes of the Beautiful City of Lindon.

I thought I loved Lindon before I started this process but it’s now hard to describe how truly deep my feelings are about our 8+ square miles that we call home!

The People, city staff, parks, public safety and so much more to be conscientious of -

I am deeply honored and humbled by the Citizens of Lindon.

I will fulfill my pledge to be a True Representative Legislator who listens to YOU!

To those who voted for me THANK YOU

and to those who did not -

I promise to make ALL Lindon residents

proud to live here!

Thank you to the many who supported me

with hearts, thoughts and prayers!

Special thanks to my sweetheart Dave -

Thanks for always believing in me

even when I doubted myself some days!

I am one lucky gal to have you!

My dear friend Valarie, who is more of a sister to me, thank you for your feet, ears and most of all your heart!

To my busy kids and kids-in-law, who are all adults

with busy lives, thanks for always being there

for whatever I needed.

I am so blessed!

Honk & Wave

 Did You Catch Our Gang on

State Street Tonight?!?

Leslie, Courtney, Matt, Randi, Valarie, Todd, Jessica and Tyler -

 not in the picture Kody and Dave

Thanks Everyone!

We were on the corner of State and Center Street

with our Honk and Wave.

From 4:30 to 5:30 pm Monday November 7 

we were blessed with a one hour window

between snow flurries -

We had a GREAT response from the passing traffic!

 Oldest son Tyler, sporting two signs at the same time.  Everyone was SO helpful to come out and support the "Randi Powell for Lindon City Council" cause!

We Didn't Even Cause ONE accident

at this dangerous corner!

Plans are for UDOT to put a signal light here

 - hopefully someday soon!

 Great Friend and "Advisor" Valarie Ricks

 - she is so much more than a "spellchecker"

My Sweetheart and biggest supporter Dave! 

So glad to have Him by my side!

Now with the Polls opening in just Hours it's your turn to get out

and have your voices heard!

Don't Forget to -

Vote FOR Lindon



I Voted Today!

Dave and I took advantage of early voting this afternoon.

There is still time to take advantage of early voting at the new Lindon Community Center

(the old red church) at 25 North Main Street

Thursday and Friday 1:00 - 5:00

The General Election is Tuesday Novemeber 8th

(That's the Last Day to Vote!)

**Don't forget you get three candidates to Vote for**

Polls of open at 7:00 am and close at 8:00 pm

Voting is again at the community center

One Week until General Election Day!

With just one week until the General Election Day on November 8th I have found myself very busy!

Door knocking,

Last minute sign placements,

Visiting with residents,

More door knocking,

Filing of required financial reports

and

TONIGHT is my very last City Council Meeting

before the big day!

I had promised myself that I would attend every council meeting once I filed as a candidate for City Council.

While I didn't make it passed 10:30pm on two occasions- tonight will be the 7^th Council Meeting

 since the filing date closed.

I have found it sad that I am the only remaining candidate who has done this.

That being said, one candidate attended

 part of one meeting.

There is another Candidate who does have his ear to the ground, so to speak, as to what is going on in Lindon. He is the Chairman of the Planning Commission

and I certainly give him a pass since he attends his City meetings the opposite Tuesday night as City Council.

So I’m off to listen as a citizen about issues regarding a zoning change (which I support) and an amendment to the accessory apartment code (which I also support).

Hopefully the next time I attend it will be as a Councilmember Elect!
