Representative Michlewitz comes through
Unfortunately, there is no way in hell that an elected official can meet all the needs and requests of the community they represent… Just can’t happen!
But Representative Aaron Michlewitz has come damn close and he continues to rev up his engine, trying to produce positive things to happen in the districts he is elected to represent.
Michlewitz has secured some big-time state funds for North End projects…
• $25 MILLION for a new Community Center.
• $5 MILLION to rehab the Nazzaro Community Center.
• Thousands of dollars to rehab the North End/West End Neighborhood Service Center and to refurbish the Richmond Street Dog Park.
Personally, each year the representative conducts a Cornhole Classic that raises thousands of dollars for North End student scholarships. This year alone the classic raised $62,000.
He also sponsors and supports many other neighborhood events and organizations.
While Michlewitz can’t meet all the needs and requests of his districts, he surely comes close.
