    Roberson seeks Council Place 3 position

    GalleryBack1 of 2Next

    Mike Roberson, a veteran business manager, is seeking election to City Council, Place 3, in Hartselle, subject to the Aug. 28 municipal election.

    A political newcomer, he is in a four-candidate race with George Hearring, Karen Owens and Glenn McGann.

    “I decided to become a candidate after talking with several individuals and business leaders,” Roberson said. “The existing administration has done a good job but the incoming administration will have the responsibility to ensure that the momentum is carried forward for four more years. I’d like to be a part of making that happen.”

    Roberson is a 31-year employee of Patrick Industries in Decatur where he serves as general manager for the distribution division as well as sales manager for the Southeastern United States.

    “With the team approach we use in management, I believe I can be an asset in working with the other council members, mayor, department heads and employees as well as the citizens of Hartselle,” Roberson said. “By working together as a team we can accomplish what’s best for the community.”

    Roberson and his wife Janice have been married for 43 years, are lifelong residents of Morgan County and have lived in Hartselle for the past 10 years. They have a daughter and son-in-law and five grandchildren.

    Roberson attended Calhoun Community College  and Florida Southern College aand is a veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He ois also a member of East Highland Batist Church and a former Civitan.

    His family also has strong family ties to Hartselle. Janice’s grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Howad James, owned and operated a grocery store at the corner of Main and Railroad Streets for many years.

    Roberson released the following position statements as part of his campaign platform:

    •Our new high school and business park give us an advantage when we present Hartselle as a prime location for new businesses and industries.

    •We need the empty stores in the central business district to be filled with businesses. “With the money the city has received to address a drainage problem, we should be able to attract businesses to that area.
