Rothstein has been drafted as a write- in candidate for mayor of Oak Park. Rothstein, who was first elected to the Oak Park City Council in 1973 and served as mayor pro tem in 1976- 1977 and 1980 - 1981, has served the community for 27 years in Bnai Brith, the Anti-Defamation League, National League of Cities, Woolen in Municipal Gov- ernment, Oak Park's Plan- ning, Arts and Cultural, and Energy Conservation Advisory Commissions and the Oak Park Symphony Society. On November 3, you will have the opportunity of electing those individuals who will represent you on the City Council for the ensuing Council term. In my judgment, one candidate stands out as having the background and experience necessary to provide direction and leadership for our City. That individual is Peter J. Cristiano. Peter Cristiano has been a resident of Southfield for 21 years and during that period of time, he served for 12 years as the Administrator of our City. In that roll he had the responsibility of the day to day hands on management of the City, and was recognized as one of the leading City Administrators in the country. During Peter's tenure, the City of Southfield was made the All-American City and the life support unit was implemented which has resulted in countless lives being saved because of their response to medical emergencies. During 1979 Peter had an opportunity to move into private enterprise and left his responsibilities as City Administrator. He now believes that he has the time and the desire to further serve the citizens of Southfield as one of our elected City Councilmen. I believe that the creativity and dedication to responsibility which Peter evidenced as the City's Administrator will be utilized in the continuing service of the City if Peter is elected to City Council. I strongly urge you, on November 3rd, to vote for Peter J. Cristiano for our City Council.
