Megan Wiles has announced her candidacy for re-election to the Noblesville Common Council, Sixth District. She is seeking her third term in order to continue to serve all residents of the City of Noblesville, as well as her district.
As a longtime resident of Noblesville, Wiles is dedicated to seeing the history of the community and authentic downtown preserved while recognizing the need to embrace growth in Noblesville.
“This is such an exciting time for the City of Noblesville,” Wiles said. “I am honored to serve on the Noblesville Common Council working with other dedicated Council members and the Administration to lead Noblesville into the future.”
Wiles is currently serving as President of the Council and was appointed by Mayor Chris Jensen as co-chair for Noblesville’s Bicentennial Committee, along with Bret Richardson. During her second term in office, she served as Vice President of the Council, a member of the Finance, Economic Development, Downtown District, and Nominating Committees, as well as a liaison to the Noblesville Arts Council and Parks Board.
“I have loved growing up in Noblesville and feel blessed that my husband and I have been able to raise our family here,” Wiles said. “As Noblesville continues to grow, we must be ready to invest in our infrastructure and ensure we are providing the appropriate public safety for all residents. I’m proud of the work of this current Council; we have dedicated resources to implement significant plans for the future of our community. I believe it’s important that we have experienced Council members working with Mayor Jensen to make sure the progress we have made in the last few years continues in a fiscally responsible manner. This is an exciting time to help lead our city forward and I am dedicated to serving the residents of the Sixth District and all of Noblesville.”
In her professional career, Wiles serves as the Executive Director of Riverview Health Foundation, where she works to build resources to support programs and projects that benefit patients, staff, and their families at Riverview Health. Community involvement is also extremely important to her – she is a member of the Vestry at St. Michael’s Episcopal Church and planning member of its annual Strawberry Festival, a 15-year member of Conner Prairie Alliance, the women’s group that operates the Apple Store at Conner Prairie, committee member for the inaugural Spotlight on Art event benefiting children in Hamilton County and a member of the Hamilton County Republican Women’s Club. She is a graduate of the Hamilton County Leadership Academy and the 29th Richard G. Lugar Excellence in Public Service class.
Wiles and her husband, Greg, are the proud parents of Garrett and Grace, both college students. She is a graduate of Noblesville High School and Ball State University.
She will seek re-election in the 2023 primary on May 2.
