Dear Citizens of Natchitoches

Born and raised in beautiful Natchitoches, I’m just a guy, doing my thing to make this place a little better every day. Started off with the Boy Scouts then at a young age I volunteered to be of service to my Country and became a Veteran of the Vietnam War era. My life has since been spent giving back to my community in any way I can from Coaching Little League to various community charities and groups that provide a better life for all.

That’s why I’m stepping up to run for Councilman-at-Large. I figure, if I’m already out here fighting for folks, why not do it from a position where I can really make a difference? From tackling crime rates to questioning and reducing those utility hikes that have collectively hit us each in the wallet, I’m all about finding real solutions that work for everyone.

Being a Councilman-at-Large means I’m here to represent everyone, no exceptions. Whether you’ve got a big issue or just a little concern, I’m all ears. I’m here to listen and make sure your voice gets heard. As Councilman-at-Large it is crucial to promote inclusivity and equity within our community. I firmly believe that every individual, regardless of background or circumstance, deserves equal opportunities and access to essential services. By championing policies that promote diversity and social justice, we can create a more inclusive and welcoming environment for all.

But it’s not just about listening – it’s about getting stuff done too. If you know me, I’m that guy who’s always got your back when it comes to looking out for my neighbor, my loved ones, my friends and strangers alike. Whether it’s lending an ear, lending a hand, or just plain rolling up my sleeves to get stuff done, I’m there. Performing as Councilman-at-Large will only enable me to perform at my optimal self.

As Councilman-at-Large, my goal is to bring us together to tackle our challenges head-on. Whether it’s working with local businesses, nonprofits, or schools, I’m all about building partnerships that benefit us all.

And let’s not forget about the money stuff. Your tax dollars are precious, and I’m committed to making sure they’re spent wisely and transparently. That means keeping a close eye on the budget and making sure we’re investing in the things that matter most to you.

So, there you have it. Being a Councilman-at-Large isn’t just a title – it’s a commitment to serving our community with passion, integrity, and a whole lot of heart. I would be honored to have your trust, and I can’t wait to roll up my sleeves and get to work should you elect me, Harold Bayonne #33, as your Councilman-at-Large.

Let’s make Natchitoches the best it’s ever been. Together, we can do better.
