Elect Terry McGinn for Indian River
Mosquito Control District ~ Seat 3
Vote for Transparency - Public Access
I’m Terry McGinn and my conviction is that the Mosquito Control District is actually a small business that was created to serve the residents of IRC to solve a critical function. I have been deeply involved as a citizen for 5 years and we need to up the game on progress. Seat 3 needs someone who will expend some effort and experience in business and technology.
This effort requires more!!
More strong fiscal discipline.
More detailed comprehensive planning with action items and accountability.
More public transparency and community outreach using the tools all progressive municipalities use every day.
The MCD Board is charged with oversight and guidance through the director. It is about many types of science and using the latest technology to achieve its growth, mission and goals.
The incumbent board can affect those changes with three members who can work together. Let me be clear. I understand the mission, I am qualified, I am motivated and I will not be the “Status Quo” you hear about.

WHY I AM RUNNING
in 2020, I worked diligently to help elect two candidates including my opponent in a crowded difficult field.
Those two supported candidates were elected. Some progress was made. Some issues were not addressed. My opponent did not step up as he promised. I am disappointed in that result.
In 2022 I again worked diligently to help elect the third very qualified candidate.
That person was elected (despite a disappointing lack of endorsement by the local editorial board. They were dead wrong and that person was the right choice and is the current chairperson. More progress has been made mostly by two incumbents, while the third in seat 3 just “showed up”.
Because of the potential negative or positive results of this election, I feel that it is my time to advance from just an active resident who cares; to an active board member who votes and participates; so I can better influence the Mosquito Control District to move more aggressively in meeting their mission and goals. There is much progress left to be made. Action deadlines and accountability matters.
That is why I am running and despite what my opponent has inferred I am there all the time every time and have the right energy and experience to bring the mission forward.
