On Monday, Jan. 23, Carmel City Council member Tony Green filed as a Republican candidate for the new South Central District.
“For more than seven years, I have attended HOA meetings, hosted town hall meetings, sent newsletters, and fielded community-wide surveys,” Green said. “My purpose is to listen to the thoughts, ideas, and dreams of Carmel residents and business leaders.”
Green says the feedback he’s received has been a consistent concern over Carmel’s rapid excessive growth and increasing density, and has shaped his priorities, which include:
- Preserving the character of Carmel’s residential neighborhoods
- Investing in infrastructure to keep pace with Carmel’s population growth
- Hiring additional police officers and adding another fire station to maintain a safe family-friendly community
“With a new mayor and so many first-time councilors, I think it’s best for Carmel and those in my district for me to continue serving and run for another term,” Green said. “I look forward to continuing to advance my priorities with the next mayor, whomever he or she might be, and new council.”
Green was a graduate from the U.S. Air Force Academy and currently serves as Deputy Executive Director for the Indiana Public Retirement System (INPRS). Prior to serving in his current capacity, he practiced law as an attorney for Barnes and Thornburg, LLP.
Green, who was a former Air Force pilot, is also currently the State Judge Advocate for the Indiana Air Guard and an adjunct Professor of Law at Indiana University Law School at Indianapolis where he teaches courses on Military Law, National Security and Foreign Policy, and Counterterrorism.
