| Endorsements: | Not seeking endorsements. | |
| Most important issue: | The number one issue to be addressed by our city is the problem of the I-94 ramp traffic congestion on County Road 37. Due to increased traffic because of recent business additions to our city these traffic congestion problems in the I-94 corridor could soon become unmanageable. We are in need of additional ramps to handle the traffic, and this will only happen with the help of federal, state, and county funds. Greatly increased traffic on I-94 thru Albertville shows the need to six lane I-94. I have recently visited with our state representatives in Washington DC regarding these matters. |
