Public Safety
A Safe Community is a Strong Community
Malynda believes that protecting Harpersville starts with prioritizing the safety of its residents. That means standing firmly behind the men and women who serve as police officers, firefighters, and emergency responders—and making sure they have the tools, training, and support they need to do their jobs with excellence.
Her vision includes:
Advocating for modern, well-maintained equipment and appropriate staffing levels for police and fire departments to serve the citizens
Ensuring regular training and development opportunities for first responders
Promoting school and church safety partnerships, especially in light of today’s evolving threats
Malynda sees public safety as a partnership—between the town, its leaders, and its citizens. With strong public safety, families feel confident putting down roots and small businesses are free to grow.
Family-First, Business-Friendly
Helping Harpersville Thrive as a Place to Live and Work
Malynda’s roots run deep in Harpersville. As a wife, mom of four, and small business owner, she understands firsthand the day-to-day realities of family life and entrepreneurship in a small town.
She’s committed to making Harpersville a place where:
Local small businesses are encouraged to grow, through reduced red tape, business-friendly policies, and visible promotion by town leaders
Young families choosing Harpersville because it’s a welcoming town with strong values and a smart, conservative approach to growth that protects our small-town charm.
The town invests in infrastructure that supports residents, including roads, signage, better parks, and city services the citizens want and need
Malynda wants to help shape a Harpersville where people of all ages can thrive without having to leave town to find opportunity.
Government Transparency
Open Meetings. Honest Budgets. Accountable Leadership.
Local government should work for the people—not behind closed doors. Malynda is a champion for transparency, accountability, and fiscal responsibility. As a Town Councilmember, she will push for open communication, ethical leadership, and common-sense decision-making.
Her commitments include:
Live-streaming Town Council meetings and making recordings available online for residents who can’t attend
Encouraging public feedback on major initiatives and decisions
Pledging to ask tough questions about how town funds are being spent—and making sure every dollar improves the quality of life for residents
Transparency isn’t a talking point—it’s a responsibility. Malynda believes if you’re trusted with public office, you’re obligated to be open, honest, and efficient with that trust.
