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.
