Monticello Live

Pat Mitchell, a local business woman, has announced her candidacy for Alderman in Ward 4, Position 2 on the Monticello City Council. The election will be Tuesday, March 1. Pat is the owner of The Tree-O, Merle Norman Studio, and Pat’s Country Kitchen.

Mitchell said 2016 is the year to stand up and make a difference in the way government is being run at all levels.

“It is time for some very important changes.” Mitchell said if elected, she pledges to work hard for not only my ward but for all of Monticello. She said 2017 needs to be different.

Before moving back to Monticello, Mitchell served on the Morehouse Parish Police Jury.

“I had the largest geographical district in the parish,” Mitchell said. “I served on the budget, roads, drainage, and personnel committees plus others. Some of these committees, we don’t have but I feel we should.”

Mitchell said she wants to make a difference in her community. There is more to serving on the city council than attending one meeting a month,” Mitchell said.
