Soapbox Summer - Satish Ramade

Satish Ramade

Satish Ramade is running for a seat on Superior Township's Board of Trustees.  This is Satish's submission to WEMU's "Soapbox Summer" series.  

Hi,
My name is Satish Ramade. I am running for Superior Township Board of Trustees. Thanks to
WEMU for the opportunity to speak on the air.

I am running for change on our township board. I would like to see our township take road improvements as one of our priorities. I would like to see the bus route extended to cover most of our township. This will not only benefit our residents who to go to Ann Arbor for Hospital visits or just recreation, but will also attract residents to live here and work in Ann Arbor.

I believe our Township needs to show leadership when it comes to Climate Stewardship. My vision is to start a program to promote the use of renewable energy and incentivize the residents for using renewable energy technologies like solar panels, solar heater etc.

I believe our township has a role to play in improving our most distressed areas. I am proposing our township should take leadership in establishing a community center in the MacArthur Blvd. area. We should setup a committee to explore creative funding options from various sources like Federal, State, County, and Local organizations, etc. to come up with the money. I believe this will tremendously help our township and folks in our distressed area.

I am a business owner and Computer software Engineer. With my business and Technology background, I am hoping to improve our fiscal health and still do bigger and better things in our community that it truly deserves.

I moved to Superior Township about 15 years ago. I fell in love with the rural character and natural habitats in the middle of bustling towns. I married 7 years ago and have 2 young daughters. I am a computer software engineer, entrepreneur, business owner and also a first generation immigrant from India. I am actively involved in our community. I serves as a Treasurer on the Bromley Park Home Owner Association board. I have also started a Neighborhood Watch group in our subdivision. I am an active church member and serve on my Church’s board-- Blue Ocean Faith Ann Arbor. I am also an active Democratic Party member and serve on the Washtenaw County Democratic Party Executive Board.

Please visit my website electsatish.com to find out more about me and my vision for our township.
As I said earlier, I am running for change. We have had our township board for 15-20 years and it’s time for new ideas and new perspectives. I am hoping to bring that new perspective to the township board with your support.

Please vote in the August 2nd Democratic Primary Election and vote for me, Vote for Satish Ramade. With your votes together we will accomplish great things for our Superior Township. I am counting on your support. Remember Satish Ramade for Superior Township Trustees.

Thank you so much for listening!
