Breaking: Council Member Steve Vaus Announces Candidacy for Poway Mayor

City Council member Steve Vaus today announced he will run for Poway Mayor in the November 2014 election.

“I’ve been on City Council since 2012 and I’d be the first to admit things in Poway are pretty good, but we can be better. We need a mayor with innovative ideas, with the time and willingness to personally connect with the community. Then Poway can go from good to great,” Vaus said in a video distributed by his campaign  (watch it at the link below).

“The efforts I’ve spearheaded – Poway Secret Service, a first of its kind community service alert; the substance abuse town hall meeting; free business licenses for veterans; promoting Poway in conjunction with the Chamber of Commerce – all of those have moved us forward, made us better. And my weekly email newsletter, monthly coffees, the fact that I publicize my personal cell phone number — all leave no doubt I take the servant part of being a public servant seriously,” Vaus continued.
