Jerry P. BERGMAN
I've lived in Des Moines with my wife Jan and my son Danny for 17 years.  I've worked for Burlington Northern as a locomotive engineer for 26 years.  I operate a small business from my home.  Look it up at www.wallcaddy.com.  I've helped my neighborhood maintain public access to our beach at South 239th street.  I helped start the 7th Ave. South local improvement district to improve our neighborhood streets, install street lighting and place our power lines underground.  I am starting a petition drive to convince the City to install a four-way stop at Marine View Drive and South 240th street, a very dangerous intersection.  I helped my son Danny convince the City Council to build a skateboard park.  I have the energy, time, and inclination to help improve our City.  If you elect me,  I will improve all of our city...Please vote for Jerry Bergman.
