Candidate Sammy Oswitz outlines "retain, engage, grow" platform for Junction City commission race
Summary
Sammy Oswitz, a candidate for the Junction City City Commission, described his background and a three-part platform — retain, engage, grow — highlighting youth engagement, fiscal priorities and outreach efforts to involve residents who cannot attend evening meetings.
Sammy Oswitz, a candidate for the Junction City City Commission, introduced himself to voters and laid out a three-part platform he summarized as "retain, engage, grow." He noted his service on CASA (court-appointed special advocates), his role in founding JC Proud, and his professional background in project management as preparation for the commission role. "I'm one of your 10 current candidates for the Junction City City Commission this year," he said.
Oswitz said "retain" prioritizes keeping residents by delivering visible returns for living in Junction City; "engage" focuses on better public information and opportunities to act; and "grow" centers on youth programs and business sustainability. He told listeners he joined the ballot after not receiving an interim January appointment and that he intends to serve beyond the immediate campaign. The candidate framed his experience and character as reasons to trust him with long-term planning and municipal responsibilities.
