WHY I'M RUNNING

ACTION ITEMS

Reginald Hardee

“As a Kissimmee native, I have seen our city evolve and change in countless ways. Some changes for the better, and undoubtedly, some that have presented new challenges that our fast-growing city must address. It is because of these challenges that I seek to lend my experience in the public, private, and non-profit sectors to the residents and businesses that call Kissimmee home.

It is my earnest hope that over the course of this campaign, you’ll get to know me and I’ll earn your vote.” –Reggie
