A message from the Mayor:

Welcome to the City of Searcy's new website! For the past few months the City has been working to try to enhance our web service to our community. We feel that this is a vital part of keeping Searcy's citizens informed of city services, activities and updated on news concerning every aspect of community living here in Searcy. It is my desire that our citizens feel a part of their local government and I encourage you to get involved by keeping us updated on issues, that you feel are important for us to address or report specific needs or concerns that you may have. Feel free to use our contact information (e-mail, phone, fax, etc.) to alert me, our department heads, or aldermen concerning those issues.

Soon, the city will have a program in place to track code enforcement issues and complaints. This program will allow us to control problem areas more efficiently and give us planning information to address future needs in these areas. It will also provide a means to keep in contact with our public regarding those issues and make it easier to respond to the individuals making the request/complaint in a timely manner.

My office is always open to every citizen to hear your concerns and ideas. Public involvement is important to me to insure that we are meeting the needs of our community, and I feel that it is the only way we can stay "in touch" with today's growing concerns of safety, economic growth, public health issues and the growing demands placed on recreational and leisure time activities.

We hope you will utilize this website to stay informed on news and events concerning your local government. Feel free to make comments on what information you would like to have provided on the website by contacting our web master, Thomas Ritchie.

If you are a new comer to Searcy or perhaps looking for a city who responds to the needs of its citizens in a caring manner, who practice good character qualities in its decision making processes, you have found just the right mix here in Searcy, Arkansas.

We have a philosophy that we truly care about providing the best possible service we can to our citizens at an economic level that you can afford, utilizing all our resources to the best of our ability in an efficient and effective manner. We strive to plan ahead for our city's growing future, insuring that we will maintain a level of service that you deserve.

Searcy is truly, "The City where thousands live as millions wish they could"!

Sincerely,

Mayor Belinda LaForce
