Collins Pettaway III has announced his run for Ward 3 of the Selma City Council.
In a press release sent on Wednesday Pettaway said that he has lived in Ward 3 since he was 11-years-old.
He has Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science in 2011 and a Master of Science degree in Communications Studies specializing in Political Communications in 2018 from the Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical (A&M) University.
He has served in numerous functions, including as past president of the Rotary Club of Selma.
“This campaign is about service, not politics,” Collins said. “I’ve always served Selma with heart and purpose. I’m running to bring transparency, action, and unity back to Ward 3—to answer long-standing questions, follow up on resident concerns, and help move Selma forward.”
Prioritize open communication and follow-through on constituent inquiries
Advocate for policy that supports economic development and neighborhood revitalization
Create and present policy that addresses long-standing issues
Preserve and promote the cultural richness of Selma’s historic district
Collaborate with city officials and community groups to ensure stable and united governance
“Selma’s future depends on leadership that listens, leads with compassion, and puts community first,” he said. “I believe in the promise of this city, and I know that when Ward 3 is strong, Selma is stronger.”
The next municipal election is scheduled for the fourth Tuesday in August. A website for Pettaway can be seen here.
