Do you feel students are being targeted by actions the City Council has taken? Overoccupancy enforcement, banning bars from running specials, raising parking ticket fines — and let’s not forget the “couch” ordinance — all impact students.

Residents living in the fourth ward have an opportunity to elect a member that will represent all the residents of the fourth ward.

Joe Paulson is that person.

Students need a voice on the Ames City Council. Students are citizens of Ames, and Joe will listen to their concerns. Joe is a businessman in the private sector. Joe works as both a realtor and a landlord. Joe’s experience in the business world is needed on the City Council. Joe has earned a reputation of honesty, fairness and common sense.

Joe Paulson is the best person to represent all the residents of the fourth ward — not just the homeowners. Joe will not tolerate discrimination against any group.
