Faryl Palles | Fountain Hills
Peggy McMahon has three goals for our town: Helping our community remain safe, helping it remain welcoming and helping it become more and more dynamic.
Town Council elections are supposed to be nonpartisan. Choosing candidates by party affiliation does nothing to ensure they have the temperament and commitment to guide our town through tough times still envisioning a bright future. Voters must examine each candidate to determine who is best suited for the job of managing Fountain Hills. In the case of Peggy McMahon it’s easy; she has been doing the real work of a councilperson since 2021, listening to residents and responding to their concerns.
At every council meeting she gives an impressive summary of the meetings, conferences and events she has attended. If you watch the council meetings, you may have wondered why some council members have so many activities to report that they’re pushed for time, and others routinely have done nothing and have nothing to say for themselves. It’s obvious who on the council understands that Fountain Hills is not an island, but an interdependent town in the Valley.
Always a good listener, Peggy empathizes with the needs of others, as shown by her participation in the Fountain Hills Cares events. Throughout the years she has demonstrated the ability to react to problems and concerns with well-reasoned decisions.
Keep Peggy working hard for our town. She shows up, she does her homework, she probes issues and problems, she networks with other governmental organizations, she goes to workshops as well as takes tours offered by utilities or relevant agencies. Peggy McMahon puts shoe leather into the job, quietly and tirelessly. We are fortunate that she wants to run for re-election. Give her your vote this July and re-elect Councilmember Peggy McMahon.
