EDITOR S NOTE: This story is the first in a series highlighting the candidates running for Tupelo City Council. Additional entries will run throughout the week.Â
TUPELO â¢Â Both candidates vying to fill the Ward 1 City Council seat are highlighting infrastructure policy as a major campaign theme, although they disagree in key ways.
Republican candidate Chad Mims is focusing on quality-of-life issues and recreational opportunities, including his desire to improve the publicly-owned Bel Air Golf Course.
Democrat Geraldine Brinkley is foregrounding road infrastructure and safety, claiming that the Walsh Road area of Ward 1 has fallen behind and needs upgrades.
Both candidates describe the city of Tupelo as a thriving community in need of a City Council representative willing to foster continued improvement and growth.
TUPELO â¢Â Chad Mims on Tuesday night won the Republican nomination in the Ward 1 runoff election, bringing an end to a hotly contested GOP primary.
Mims, a 43-year-old pharmaceutical sales representative, defeated Amanda Angle, an accountant. Uncertified but complete election day results gathered from local polling precincts and absentee ballots show that Mims received 51.1% of the votes to 48.9% for Angle.
Mims campaigned on looking at potential ideas to improve public safety in neighborhoods, working to improve the golf course at the Bel Air Center and exploring quality of life projects in the ward.
âYou also want to make it where itâs a safe area to live and exercise,â Mims said in a previous interview with the Daily Journal. âIt helps the property values in the area as well as makes it safer. People that are moving into Tupelo especially are looking for somewhere to move to, thatâs one of the big areas that they look at.â
