How do Bloomington residents describe Jon?

I have never worked with anyone who works harder at listening to others and getting the facts together before moving forward with a decision.  Jon’s dedication to our city is evident. I like his willingness and availability to sit down and talk with me informally, simply as a resident, listen to my concerns, and share his own. He cares, he listens and he works extraordinarily hard to make Bloomington a better place to live.

Jon and I have served meals for the Creekside Seniors program, made and repaired kites at Kite Day 2017, and been part of the Community Center Task Force.  I’ve learned that he is an intelligent, kind, fair and caring man.  He is very concerned that the citizens of Bloomington have the very best place to live. He definitely has my support.
