Dear Editor,
Kingman has a 2024 population of 37,016. Kingman is currently growing at a rate of 2.92% annually and its population has increased by 12.53% since the most recent census, which recorded a population of 32,895 in 2020.
Most Kingman residents already know the difficulties identifying “available” medical professionals for an appointment, medical evaluation and treatment. Given our recorded and prospective population growth, those tasks will increase proportionally – leaving many residents without needed medical care.
Many, if not most, know I am currently a candidate for Kingman City Council. In prior writings and messages, I’ve noted my commitment to vigorously participate in helping to create and implement programs to attract and retain medical professionals.
To that goal several marketing scenarios and strategies have been conceived for presentation and discussion. Working within our city council and in conjunction with other city departments I hope to help discover creative pathways for implementation. I’m not a politician, but, just like you a concerned resident with the will, time and energy to help our community keep ahead of our growth curve.
I’ve every belief with essential voter support, together we can help make our city even a better place.
Elliot Chalew
Candidate for Kingman City Council
