Meet John Chirkun...
Since first being elected to the Roseville City Council in 1995, and during my time as Mayor, my priority has always been building a financially-secure and economically-vibrant City. We have met our objectives through teamwork — bringing unions, businesses and residents together around shared, common goals. As City Treasurer, I will always work with our residents, our unions, the city council and our state, county and federal officials to make solid investments in our city and the improve the level of services that it provides.
In addition to my previous years of experience in local government, I proudly served in the Wayne County Sheriff’s Department for 29 years, and was elected Vice President of SEIU Local 502. I also served as State Representative for three terms before I was termed out at the end of 2020.My extensive background in labor local, and state government has blessed me with the leadership skills and experience necessary to make the right decisions that benefit our community.
As State Representative, I fought to repeal right to work and cuts to revenue sharing and prevailing wage. I supported efforts to repeal the tax on retirement income, cutting funding for our public schools, neglecting our transportation infrastructure, attacking the rights of working men and women, and stripping much needed funding from cities and townships. I fought for policies that will protect our community and residents.
Decisions made by elected officials in our city will have a lasting impact on our city’s residents for decades to come. This is why it is essential to have elected officials who truly understand the needs of working families, are committed to improving our community by making sound investments and who recognizes that we need to provide efficient and quality public services that the residents demand. Simply put, we need to invest in our community and its citizens. If elected, quality customer service to our residents will be my priority.
I hope to earn your support in my run for Roseville City Treasurer. Together, we can move Roseville forward with a positive vision built on common-sense leadership for working families. If you have any questions, or would like to discuss my vision in greater detail, feel free to contact me anytime.
Sincerely,
John Chirkun
