8 Monday, August 6, 2007 The Michigan Daily - michigandaily.com WARD 5 From page 1 and Kiwanis International. "I have been very involved in the town since the beginning," he said. "Whenever IShave to leave, I always regret it because there is always something cool going on." Nowadays, Anglin spends most of his time in Ward 5 knocking on doors and promoting his candidacy, and estimates that he talks to 10-12 people per day. "We've built the campaign from what we're hearing citizens say around town," he said. Woods said she hopes that, as an incumbent, her experience will be an attractive quality this election. She initially joined City Council in 2001 after former Council mem- ber Chris Kolb left to become a state representative and nominated Woods to fill his spot. Woods chaired the Solid Waste Commission and served on the Environmental Commission, the Planning Commission, the Audit Committee and the Downtown Marketing Task Force. She also pushed Ann Arbor citi- zens to understand the cost on their city of the war in Iraq. Woods said she first met oppo- nent Mike Anglin last year. "We are both respectful of each other's position because we are in the same party," she said. "But I don't think he always understands the complexity of some issues the City Council has to deal with." Of Woods, Anglin said he is dis- appointed that she generally agrees with the majority of the Council. "She's good at attending meetings but we need more opinions," he said. Anglin believes that Ann Arbor is a "cultural Mecca for environmen- tal change," and advocates the envi- ronmental enhancement of existing and developing buildings. He is also concerned with the transparency of City Council. "I would like to see a roll-call vote on every item," he said. "We need a participatory voice and a democracy and that's why I'm running." Anglin said he has the support of several Ann Arbor Republicans, who are not represented on the Council. "I don't think they should feel locked out of the election because we need more dialogue," he said. Both candidates emphasize improving housing in student-pop- ulated areas as part of their cam- paign. Anglin is concerned about the relationship between landlord and tenant, and wants to see more enforcement ofhousing codes. Woods said she is concerned about making Ann Arbor more affordable, closing loopholes in the lease-signing ordinance that delays the deadline apartment tenants have to renew their leases, and fur- ther developing Ann Arbor. 0 EAN COL LE ECRE DIT EARN TO SCUBA DIVE!
