Official page for Martha Pfister, candidate for Ward 2 Alderwoman in Alton, Illinois
Hi, I’m Martha.
Thank you for electing me as your Ward 2 Alderwoman.
My public service will begin on May 14. I’d like to get a start on one of my top priorities: connection. In order to facilitate connection between the city and constituents, I invite residents to sign up for my 2nd ward email newsletter. You can opt-in for the newsletter here: bit.ly/altonward2. This will be an occasional and brief email letting you know what’s happening at City Hall, and it’s also where I will share details and reminders for standing 2nd ward meetings. The meetings will be held at a location within the 2nd ward and will tentatively begin in June.
Every citizen should expect quality from their neighborhood.
I believe in strengthening residents’ sense of community and belonging through increased connection and collaboration.
