Don Armel, candidate for Statesboro City Council in District 5, says he wants to help make Statesboro a place people are proud to live, an example to other communities. Improving the economy, particularly to help those now living in poverty, and developing public transportation are two things he supports as means to achieve that. “Truly I want to see this community improve and be a shining star, be an example of what smaller communities can be,” he said in an interview.
