Letter: Ashley Vanorny will fight for families

City government allows citizens the greatest opportunity in modern politics to feel that our representatives not only know us, but if they don’t, they are willing to talk to us, hear our concerns and answer our questions. When I had some concerns about a city project in our neighborhood, the progress of the development of a planned city park and the walkability of our neighborhood and couldn’t reach anyone to listen to me, I contacted City Council District 5 Candidate Ashley Vanorny. She immediately responded and came to our neighborhood to learn more.

Ashley Vanorny - Cedar Rapids Council District 5 Candidate

The business community should vote for me because I will work hard to support them. Cedar Rapids is home to a wealth of talented craftsmen and skilled citizens. I will make sure that Cedar Rapids is accessible for entrepreneurs by designing the regulatory environment to help small businesses open safe and quickly without creating any unnecessary regulatory burdens, but by offering regulatory assistance workshops.

Letter: Vanorny's union ties help her stand out

Over the past 30 years, I have known many families with union ties. The Vanorny family is one of them. Ashley Vanorny is the daughter one of my union brothers, the late IBEW member Dan Vanorny. She has decided to run for Cedar Rapids City Council. It would be a great asset to our city to have such an intelligent, involved individual as one of our representatives.

Letter: Ashley Vanorny will show up for District 5

It’s easy to get frustrated with city government. We all have ideas for little fixes — improvements that could give us that extra ounce of Cedar Rapids pride — yet it often feels like the folks making decisions are distracted by anything but implementing such low-hanging fruit.

Aim to bring new energy to council

Cedar Rapids and the west side has been my home my entire life.
After getting involved in servant leadership after college, I started reaching out to my representatives with hopes of engaging them in the conversation. When I didn’t see their presence on these important issues in our community or even get a response from them, I decided I would come to them.

2 millennials challenge longtime incumbent in District 5 race for Cedar Rapids Council

New faces are up against a three-term incumbent, who’s seen the city through the flood and a post-flood resurgence, in the District 5 race for Cedar Rapids City Council. The field is made up of two millennial-aged challengers — Ashley Vanorny, 32, an IT analyst, and Keith Wiggins, 34, a businessman. They are trying to unseat Justin Shields, 75, a retired Quaker Oats worker who was first elected in 2005.

Meet Ashley Vanorny, candidate for Cedar Rapids City Council District 5

I’m running for council because as a servant leader in the community I originally sought to engage my representatives in the discussion of activities I was engaged in by inviting them and emailing/calling.
