Fishers has had only one mayor since becoming a city in 2015, Scott Fadness. Thursday, the mayor made it official – he plans to run for another term as mayor.
“Over the last several years, Fishers has experienced transformative growth and investment, and we’ve built a community that is vibrant, thriving, and entrepreneurial all while maintaining best-in-class city services and a solid financial foundation,” Fadness said in a news release from his campaign. “To build on this momentum and accelerate Fishers further into the future, I will continue to embrace innovation, seize opportunities, and lead with bold vision for our city.”
The statement from the Fadness campaign talks about his focus on “growing a sustainable and vibrant economy while building a desirable community with unique and modern amenities.” The campaign also highlights the city’s accomplishments under his leadership in the areas of public safety, quality of life and fiscal responsibility.
No other candidate has announced an intention to run for Mayor of Fishers, in the Republican or Democratic primary election, set for May 2nd.
