Charlotte Raup for Wilkes - Barre City Council
District E
Most qualified for the job.
Caring, Concerned, Accessible, Experienced and Knowledgeable.
Working diligently as a volunteer for 10 years with the police, city officials,
magistrates and the District Attorneys Office to improve the city, prevent crime and eliminate
illegal drugs.
My Mission, My Passion
As your City Council member, I will bring experience and fresh ideas to the table. In
the last ten years I have been involved with many facets of city government. I have seen first hand how the city works and
what problems need to be corrected. My work on the Wilkes-Barre City Charter Review Commission has educated me about the legislative
duties, responsibilities and the limitations of City Council.
For the last decade, I have been involved with nightly Crime Watch patrols around our
city. My Crime Watch members and I are out on the streets from midnight until 3 or 4 a.m. several nights a week watching for
suspicious activity that is then reported to the police. These patrols have been very effective and informative.
My training and work with the fourteen Crime Watch groups in the city has made me fully aware of how
illegal drugs and absentee landlords are destroying our neighborhoods. These are issues that have
to be aggressively addressed by City Council.
My love for Wilkes- Barre and concern for its residents speaks for itself.
I have volunteered hundreds of hours with various civic groups to improve the quality
of life in our city. As your City Council member, I will continue to dedicate my efforts towards safe, clean neighborhoods
just as I have been doing for the last 10 years.
My major issues are crime prevention, eliminating illegal drugs, absentee landlords, beautification
of the city and recreation for our youth.
