Here is a recap of the ad brochure handed out by Tega Cay Mayor candidates Bob Runde and George Sheppard

George Sheppard’s Brouchure

As your Mayor, I would like to preserve the sense of family and community that is so widespread in Tega Cay. My family and I have lived in Tega Cay for nearly 4 years after moving for the School District and falling in love with the community.

Serving on Council for 22 months as Mayor Pro Tempore, I now want to serve as your Mayor. I will work with the Chamber of Commerce and the Developer’s of the Stonecrest area towards completing the many undeveloped commercial acres already a part of our city. While I am not against responsible annexation that will demonstrate a true financial benefit for the citizens of Tega Cay, I oppose shoestring annexation with no apparent NEED or significant fiscal benefit*.

We have many needs that must be met in the near term such as Parks and Public Safety. Fire hydrants should be a high priority of the City before additional annexation. This has been an issue for too many years and needs to be addressed asap. I believe that these is¬sues will Preserve Tega Cay.

As Mayor, I will be open and for the residents. I will strive to limit FOIA requests as I want you to know what is going on in your city.

Thank you for the opportunity I have to serve the people of Tega Cay and to further serve you as Mayor!
