Pat Efird for mayor of Carolina Beach
I have voted three times against changes that were initiated by another candidate
for Mayor in our R-3 single family home zoning which would open it up to multi-unit
development. This same council member is currently not in compliance with our
zoning code and ordinances in the R-3 single family home district because h...e built
and rented out apartments in his garage. This council member states he is the most
knowledgable member on council around planning and zoning and yet when he
built these apartments a few years back he didn't get a building permit, an electrical
permit or a plumbing permit. That just isn't right.See More

Alan Pacek Pat Efird is such a great lady - sincere about the good of the island,
and without the ego or other political aspirations of the other 2 boys running for
Mayor.

Bruce Holsten I truly can't believe you wrote this, Alan. This isn't a popularity
contest!! This is about who can actually accomplish and sustain the hard "daily"
work necessary to keep the Island moving forward. You know better than anyone
where we were four years ago, and who had the "hands on leadership and vision" to
drag the Island into the 21st Century as a Tourist Destination and successful
business community. Don't let your ego get in the way of common sense. Pat has
done nothing more than show up for council meetings, doesn't serve on or attend
critical county or town committees, and rarely shares her vision or views, if she has
any. And she can't even send or respond to an email, let alone manage her Facebook
account, which is being done behind the scenes by others. You know what's best for
the Island and who has the courage and energy and willingness to invest in the
Island's future, and it's not Pat. The next Mayor needs to do a lot more than just
"show up for meetings," they need to get involved and sadly, Pat has chosen the path
of least resistance in her long service to the Island.

Alan Pacek Bruce, you are right, this is not a popularity contest. Remember
this election for Mayor is about electing the best person for the job for the next 2
years. That person is Pat Efird. Pat's continuity of service to the community and
integrity to look-out for the interests of the overall community make her an easy
choice for me. To sustain the positive momentum of Carolina Beach, the next Mayor
needs not to be able to listen, reason, and compromise to do what is best. The other
candidates for mayor... well - they are better at telling instead of listening, arguing
instead of reasoning, and fighting to win - instead of knowing when to compromise.
All good attributes for a contractor/project manager - just not what's needed for the
next Mayor of Carolina Beach.
