Chris Black Sr. announces candidacy for Wetumpka City Council District 1

From Chris Black, Sr.

Wetumpka, AL

It’s Time to Earn Back Our Community’s Trust.

Election Day, the choice for Wetumpka’s future is in your hands. I am asking for your support not just as a candidate, but as a long-time resident and business owner committed to a common-sense approach to our city’s governance.

My connection to this community runs deep. My family and I moved to the Wetumpka area in April 2015, and I became an official resident of Cotton Lakes in October 2023. During that time, I was a local business owner of Coosa River Roadside, a company I operated from 2018 until 2024. My family’s business, DCCI, also chose to make Wetumpka its home in April 2024. This isn’t just my city; it’s where my family works, lives, and thrives.

Policy and Structure Over Short-Term Fixes

Our city is experiencing rapid growth, and with that comes the need for a strategic, structured plan—not just one-off solutions. I am running to introduce lasting policy and structure that will guide our progress for years to come. This means a clear, transparent plan for everything from infrastructure development to fiscal management. As your representative, I will work to ensure our city government operates with the efficiency and accountability you deserve, turning day-to-day challenges into opportunities for sustainable growth.

Building a Stronger Community from the Ground Up

A great city is built on strong relationships. As a community, we need to bridge the gap between our citizens and the dedicated first responders who serve us every day. I will work to foster a culture of collaboration, ensuring our public safety heroes have the support they need and our citizens feel a sense of unity and pride. This isn’t something you can do from a desk; it requires being present and accessible. That’s why I promise to be seen in the streets daily, listening to your concerns and working directly on your behalf. My commitment is to be a constant, visible presence for the people who elect me.

Vote for a Hands-On Leader

This election is a crucial moment for our city. Your vote is your voice in shaping Wetumpka’s future, and it’s too important to leave to chance. My background in business has taught me the importance of solving problems with diligence and integrity, and I am the best candidate to bring that hands-on, proactive approach to city hall. I am asking for your vote so I can put these skills to work for you.

I invite you to call or text me anytime to discuss your concerns or ideas.
