COMMUNICATION STARTS WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS.

Being a good neighbor means more than simply living next door to someone. It means communicating, showing respect, listening, and making an honest effort to resolve disagreements before turning them into something bigger.

Earlier this summer, my opponent reportedly contacted a City Code Enforcement officer about her own neighbor because a wheel on the family’s camper was not resting on pavement. What stands out to me is that, rather than first having a conversation with the neighbor, the situation was taken directly to Code Enforcement.

There is a lesson here: Sometimes a conversation can accomplish more than a complaint.

I also believe something else is important when discussing leadership: You cannot be afraid of confrontation, especially when you are an elected official.

Being an elected official isn’t about avoiding uncomfortable conversations, looking the other way, or passing difficult situations off to someone else. It means having the courage to sit down with people, address concerns directly, ask difficult questions, and stand up for what is right, even when those conversations aren’t easy.

That doesn’t mean ignoring legitimate code violations or looking the other way when rules need to be enforced. It means approaching situations with common sense, fairness, communication, and respect.

As Township Trustee, I believe residents deserve someone who is accessible, willing to listen, and not afraid to have the difficult conversations that come with public service.

Our neighborhoods are built on relationships. We should be encouraging people to work together, not creating unnecessary division between neighbors.

Leadership isn’t about avoiding confrontation. It’s about handling it with integrity, professionalism, and respect.

🇺🇸 MORE ACCESS. BETTER SERVICE. A TOWNSHIP THAT WORKS FOR YOU.

Government should work for the people, not make people work around government!

Hobart Township residents deserve access to their Township government when it fits their schedules, not just during traditional business hours.

When elected Hobart Township Trustee, I am committed to EXPANDING ACCESS AND IMPROVING SERVICE by extending Township office hours:

🕗 Tuesdays & Thursdays: Open until 8:00 PM
📅 One Saturday Each Month: Open from 8:00 AM until Noon

Why does this matter? Because many residents work during the day, care for their families, or simply cannot make it to the Township office before 4:00 PM.

It’s time to make Township services more accessible and responsive to the people who need them.

✅ More accessibility.
✅ Better service.
✅ A government that puts residents first.

These are practical changes designed to help working families, seniors, veterans, and every resident who depends on Township services.

This is about more than office hours. It’s about making government work better for YOU!

🗳️ Vote Joe Clemmons November 3rd!

A township should be more than an office people visit when they need help. It should be a resource that keeps residents informed, connected, prepared, and involved.

My vision includes expanding opportunities for residents to learn, participate, and access the services available to them.

🔴 COMMUNITY WORKSHOPS – Bring in guest speakers and offer educational opportunities on budgeting, personal finances, township assistance programs, public safety, crime prevention, online safety, mental health resources, and more.

⚪️ BETTER COMMUNICATION – Strengthen the connection between township government and the people it serves. Residents deserve to know what resources are available and how to access them.

🔵 GREATER ACCESS – Make township programs and services easier to navigate, with a focus on improving the assistance application process so residents can receive help faster.

🔴 COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT – Encourage residents to participate, share ideas, ask questions, and have a meaningful voice in their township.

⚪️ EXPAND THE FOOD PANTRY – Continue building on existing resources to help more individuals and families facing food insecurity.

This is about turning township government into a community resource, not just a government office.

Education creates opportunity. Communication builds trust. Engagement strengthens communities. And effective programs turn ideas into results.

PEOPLE OVER POLITICS. ACCOUNTABILITY AT EVERY LEVEL.

Vote Joe!

PUBLIC SAFETY FIRST. PREPARATION IS NOT OPTIONAL.

When emergencies happen, residents don’t need excuses or empty promises. They need leadership, preparation, coordination, and action.

As your next Hobart Township Trustee, I want to build a stronger, more prepared community through a comprehensive Public Safety First initiative.

Here’s what that means:

🔹 Establish a Township Emergency Response Team (TERT).

🔹 Strengthen emergency preparedness and disaster response programs.

🔹 Improve coordination between Hobart, Lake Station, New Chicago, and Gary.

🔹 Build partnerships with local emergency services and community organizations.

🔹 Expand outreach to seniors and vulnerable residents.

🔹 Develop resource networks to help families displaced by fires, natural disasters, and other emergencies.

🔹 Improve emergency communications and coordination between local agencies and Township resources.

Because when disaster strikes, preparation makes a difference.

My background includes four years of honorable service in the United States Navy and 25 years in law enforcement. I’ve spent my career understanding the importance of preparation, teamwork, leadership under pressure, and getting things done.

I don’t believe in waiting for a crisis to figure out what to do. I believe in building relationships, establishing plans, and putting the right resources in place BEFORE they’re needed.

Promises are easy. Ex*****on matters.

On November 3rd, vote for experience, preparation, and a plan of action.

LEADERSHIP ISN’T ABOUT POLITICS. IT’S ABOUT EXPERIENCE, ACCOUNTABILITY, AND GETTING THE JOB DONE.

Hobart Township deserves a leader who understands what it means to serve, make difficult decisions, manage through challenging situations, and put people first.

My background in the United States Navy, 25 years in law enforcement, and years of public service have taught me that leadership isn’t about titles or political agendas. It’s about showing up, finding solutions, working with others, and doing what’s right, even when it’s not easy.

As your next Township Trustee, I will bring:

💥 Real-world leadership and crisis-management experience.

💥 Solutions instead of political games.

💥 Professional working relationships with the Township Board and community leaders.

💥 Service above personal agendas.

💥 Integrity, discipline, accountability, and common sense.

I don’t believe in creating division. I believe in building relationships, addressing challenges, and delivering results.

Experience matters. Leadership matters. Ex*****on matters.

I’m ready to get to work for the people of Hobart Township.

VOTE JOE CLEMMONS NOVEMBER 3!

PEOPLE OVER POLITICS. ACCOUNTABILITY AT EVERY LEVEL.

A PLAN IS ONLY AS GOOD AS THE PLAN TO EXECUTE IT.

I don’t JUST talk about what Hobart Township needs. I explain HOW we can get there within the first four years.

My strategic plans go beyond promises and talking points. They outline the priorities, the steps, the partnerships, and the accountability needed to turn ideas into action.

From public safety and food pantry expansion to senior and veteran outreach, workforce development, and better access to township services, I want residents to know more than what I want to accomplish. I want them to understand how we can make it happen.

No empty promises. No vague ideas. A strategic plan with direction, priorities, and a path forward.

That’s the difference between “talking about change” and preparing to make it happen.

As a United States Navy veteran, I understand that honoring our veterans must mean more than words of appreciation. It means making sure those who served, along with their families, have access to the resources, benefits, and support they have earned.

My Strategic Plan includes specific initiatives focused on connecting veterans and seniors with available services, strengthening community partnerships, and creating meaningful, ongoing outreach.

My opponent speaks about access and connections, but I have publicly outlined a plan that identifies priorities and explains how they will be put into action.

Our veterans deserve more than promises. They deserve a plan, accountability, and ex*****on.

THE DIFFERENCE

McCauley:
Access & Connection
A welcoming office, compassion, and connections to available resources.

Clemmons:
Programs & Ex*****on
Specific initiatives, community partnerships, ongoing representation, and organized outreach.

When I am elected Hobart Township Trustee, I will work hand in hand with every member of the Township Board, Republican or Democrat.

I’m not running to build political walls. I’m running to build a stronger Hobart Township.

The Township Board has an important role in township government, including advising the Trustee and working on matters that affect our community.

There may be disagreements. There may be different ideas. That’s okay.

What matters is that we can sit at the same table, listen to one another, debate the issues, find common ground when possible, and ultimately do what we believe is best for the people we were elected to serve.

I will work with anyone who is willing to work for the people.

I will respect the office.
I will respect the Board.
I will listen to different viewpoints.
And I will never put party politics ahead of the residents of Hobart Township.

Because when the election is over, we’re all still Hobart Township.

Republican. Democrat. Independent.

Different political views, but one community.

Hobart Township deserves a Trustee who will bring people together and get to work.

FOR THE PEOPLE.
