City councilman Dan Randleman is the first to step forward and announce his candidacy to run for Mayor for the city of Weiser this upcoming November.
Randleman is a born and raised Weiser citizen with both sets of his grandparents being from Weiser. He met and married his wife Judy and raised their two daughters here in the community. Randleman has a combined total of thirty years working for the city of Weiser on the Planning and Zoning Commission and City Council. He worked twenty-five years on the Rural Fire Department and retired about five years ago from his own construction company he ran for thirty years.
“I have wanted to run for Mayor for quite some time now. I think with my experience with city business and my construction business it gives me the knowledge I would need to run our community. Being in city government for thirty years I kind of know what works and what doesn’t. I don’t think there will be any surprises there. I think Mayor Thomas has done a pretty good job with her two terms in office to keep the city moving forward and I want to continue that. I think my experience in construction will help because a lot of the projects in Weiser are along the lines of sewer plants, roads and stuff. I understand all those construction aspects and I think that will be a real asset,” stated Randleman.
