Dear Friends,

I am running for re-election to represent Ward 5 on Saint Paul's City Council. My experience and action-oriented approach will continue to produce positive results for our community.

Experience:
As the incumbent in this election, I have a great appreciation for the issues facing Ward 5 and the City of Saint Paul as well as the network of relationships that helps me move our community’s agenda forward.

Action:
I am a tireless advocate bringing additional resources and investments into the neighborhoods in Ward 5.

Results:
My record includes a strong commitment to public safety, hundreds of new jobs in Ward 5, a renewed investment in the Rice Street Corridor, and a comprehensive approach to environmental sustainability and respect for neighborhoods.

While I am proud of my contributions to the community, there is much left to be done. I remain committed to promoting an agenda of fiscal responsibility, public safety, and community investment. By working together and building on the momentum of the past three years, we can keep the city moving forward.

I ask for your support.

Best wishes,
Lee Helgen
Councilmember, Ward 5 City of Saint Paul
