Community Activist, Mike Allen, Decides Not To Run In District A Race In MC And Endorses Rodney Griffin For Council!

Just into this site: Colony Crossing resident Mike Allen, who has been a property rights activist in his community, has decided not to seek the district A council seat in Missouri City and instead has endorsed registered candidate Rodney Griffin who narrowly lost the hotly contested race in 2007 by just 3 votes.

Earlier this month Eunice Reiter announced she will not seek re-election and then offered her support to Robert Marshall who also lives in the Colony Crossing neighborhood. Apparently, Mr. Allen had decided to run with the encouragement of many in that subdivision and given some of the actions by his HOA board president, Mr. Marshall, involving their community and his repeated attempts to substantially raise their annual dues. Mr. Allen, according to reports, opposed this with petitions and supposedly enough votes to change the neighborhood board, but Mr. Marshall has so far been successful with the help of the involved vendor law firm in blocking the acceptance of the votes that would replace him as HOA board president.

Mr. Griffin considers this a valuable endorsement by Mike Allen and looks forward to working with him during this campaign season.
