Regina Moore, City Clerk

Regina has served as City Clerk, the friendly face of City Hall, since 2000. Her dedication to transparent and apparent government is clear. She has spent countless hours reaching out to community groups to teach them how city government works. She is organized, smart, and congenial — everything you need in a City Clerk. Beyond that, she has been an active supporter of progressive issues in our community and has played an instrumental role in bringing more women into local government.

City Council

Dorothy Granger, District II

Dorothy’s life-long commitment to social justice and experience working for non-profit social service agencies make her an excellent candidate for a seat on the City Council. One of her primary concerns in Bloomington is affordable housing, and she pledges to work collaboratively with city departments and local agencies to provide more options for low-income residents.

Dave Rollo, District IV

Our petroleum-based economy must change in the near future due to the decreasing availiability of oil, and no one understands this more profoundly here in Bloomington than Dave. Instigator and co-author of the Peak Oil Task Force report on which important city decisions are now based, Dave has put Bloomington in the forefront of cities preparing for a future radically different than the car-dependent past. In addition, Dave is dedicated to listening to constituent concerns, and we are pleased to support him for another term.

Stephen Volan, District VI

Steve has served as a conscientious representative of District 6 for almost 8 years, upholding the principles of sustainability as well as addressing the complex issues of a largely student-populated district. He was a driving force behind the Materials Recovery Facility recently approved by the Monroe County Solid Waste Management District, which would allow the city to earn money from recyclables instead of paying money to a private business to handle them. He also consistently views development in light of facilitating and increasing pedestrian traffic. To deal with neighborhood issues in the “party zones” of the district, Steve has proposed a 311 help line as a first step to track problems and eventually develop better solutions.

Andy Ruff, At-Large

Andy has passionately defended and upheld the interests of working people in his three-term career on the City Council. He authored the Bloomington Living Wage ordinance, broadened the membership of the Bloomington Economic Development Corporation, and sponsored the city’s Responsible Bidder ordinance in 2009. As the Council’s representative on the Metropolitan Planning Organization, he voted against accepting the unfunded I-69 section through Monroe County and has advocated for policies and plans that are pedestrian and bicycle-friendly.

Susan Sandberg, At-Large

With a background in the arts and social ser-vices, Susan understands the importance of local government in both these fields. As a member of the Bloomington Entertainment and Arts District advisory committee, she has worked with the mayor’s administration to expand Bloomington’s appeal as a destination for arts lovers across the state and the country. Using her voice as a City Council member, Susan has also spoken out against federal cuts to social services and state cuts to public education.
