Carlton Campbell seeks re-election as Abbeville Councilman At-Large

Dear Friends and Neighbors,
My name is Carlton Campbell and I am presently serving as Councilman at Large for the City of Abbeville, representing every resident of our community across neighborhoods and perspectives. I do not represent one group or one side.
Our strength always comes from our diversity and our shared commitment to build a community where people can live, work and enjoy life together. Whether you have lived here for generations as I have, or just putting down roots, your voice matters and your success matters.
As your councilman, I am firmly Committed to policies that encourage responsible business growth, protect local jobs and attract new businesses and investments in our community.
Progress does not come from division. It comes from listening, collaboration and working on practical solutions. I work every day to ensure that decisions made at city hall reflect fairness, opportunity and common sense without race, income, or political beliefs.
My volunteering to work in activities to me is a virtue. I have been a volunteer for many years. I have served on the Fire and Police Civil Service Board, the Municipal Civil Service Board as chairman, vermilion Parish domestic intervention board, served as a member of VEDA, as a commissioner of Abbeville Harbor and Terminal Board, developed the walking trail at Huntsberry Park, founder of the Coach Herbert Williams baseball field, volunteered to work on the community garden project as vegetable planner, serve served as the governor representative on the main parish board of election commission, and also serve served as king of the Cattle Festival.
My work history began as a short order cook, then as an installer for the telephone company, the United Postal Service, and a business packager for the United States Small Business developer. Lastly, I served as a Deputy Clerk of Court retiring as Chief Deputy Clerk of Court under the administration of Diane Meaux Broussard.
I am a graduate of USL (now UL), Howard University as a certified business and public administration specialist.
I am married to the former Belinda Grogan and we are parents of two children, Kendra and Donovan Campbell both Abbeville High School graduates. Donovan is a member of the AHS Athletic Hall of Fame. We have three grand children, one is Dylan Campbell who attended the University of Texas Longhorns and now is a member of the Philadelphia Phillies baseball organization. While in college he had the longest baseball hitting record at 38 games which still stands.
Again, thanks for allowing me to serve as Councilman at Large and I hope to be re-elected so I can continue working to make the city of Abbeville, Louisiana a desirable place to work, live and retire. Thank You.
