KAKOS RUNS FOR<br />
SOUTHFIELD COUNCIL<br />
Longtime resident Robert Kakos<br />
is running for a seat on the<br />
Southfield City Council.<br />
Kakos said he has three principle<br />
aims in his campaign:<br />
Support for the police and fire<br />
departments; reduction of property<br />
taxes; and improved communication<br />
within city government<br />
and between the government and<br />
the citizens.<br />
Kakos is a veteran of the Marine Corps who<br />
earned numerous medal and meritorious awards.<br />
He said he is concerned with the policy of attrition<br />
within Southfield’s police department. Currently,<br />
Kakos said, many of the spots that are created when<br />
an officer retires or leaves the force remain vacant,<br />
with the result of a reduced police presence.<br />
Reversing this trend is a campaign theme.<br />
Kakos also advocates lower property taxes and<br />
making the city government and its departments<br />
more efficient.<br />
