Declare your Independence May 23rd 2014 - Vote No. 1 INDEPENDENT Cllr. PADDY KENNEDY I am a Town Councillor for ten years and a County Councillor for the past five years. I don’t fail my supporters. No matter what the problem is, let it be big or small. If I am new to you just ask and I am confident that people will vouch for my work ethic. I will if elected work hard on behalf of every resident in the new Newbridge Kildare Municipal Council. I am asking you for your No. 1 to allow me to represent you in this a time of massive change. I could dwell on the abolishing of Town Councils but instead I am looking forward to the new powers that the new Council are given and I will make sure I am ready if elected to implement and work hard on delivering all the benefits that these new powers will bring from day one of the Municipal Council. It will be most important to make sure all our community groups are given the funds they badly need to continue their hard work on behalf of our residents. I will be thinking outside the box and not always blaming lack of funds for not getting projects completed. It is most important that whoever is elected must know the workings of the new Municipal Councils. New or previous Councillors elected must have a proven record of working hard for their community and families, they must not be one issue candidates. The person you elect must work hard with all other elected representatives as you get nothing done without the support of others no matter what job you are in. Please feel free to go to my website for more detail: www.paddykennedy.ie Vote No. 1 Independent Cllr. PADDY KENNEDY Your Vote Your Choice I am currently very involved in the Regional Drugs Task Force and I have worked on projects such as Drugs Driving Campaign “Dial Stop for Drugs Dealing”, closing head shops and will continue the fight against the scourge of drugs in our Towns and Villages. In July 2013 took over as Chair of Board of Directors of Kildare West Wicklow Community Addiction Services. Put a new Board of Directors and Manager in place. An independent voice is your voice and not the party line. If you elect me I will be working and answerable to you and not a party.
