PRESS RELEASE
JULY 16, 2018
Madison, Indiana- Julie Berry is announcing her candidacy for the office of Madison Mayor in the 2019 election.
Berry served as Special Projects Administrator for Madison during an extremely challenging period in the 1980’s. “Following the abrupt closure of the Marble Hill Nuclear Plant it was necessary to work hard on industrial development. I was part of teams that attracted Arvin Sango, Madison Precision Products and Century Tube industrial plants to Madison. I understand how to network, promote, and seal deals for our community,” said Berry. “I think it is time to bring in bold ideas, methods, and action to ensure our City’s growth and sustainable future.”
Berry served three terms as the first female County Commissioner in the history of Jefferson County. She served as President of the bi-partisan Indiana Association of County Commissioners, and was named the 2011 Outstanding Indiana County Commissioner by the Association of Indiana Counties. Governor Mitch Daniels also appointed Berry to the Indiana Courthouse Preservation Advisory Commission.
Berry has been married for 33 years to Pat Berry. She is the mother of two children, and has two grandchildren. She is a graduate of Ball State University, and the National Development Council Economic Development Professional Course Program. She has worked the past ten years as Sr. Marketing Executive for Midwestern Eng., Inc.
“I will bring my perspective as a Mother, a local government official, and a private sector business person to this important job. I will listen carefully to make sure I represent the values and concerns of my community. I have a proven track record of working in a bi-partisan manner to accomplish goals and objectives. I was chosen by my fellow elected officials to chair the Region 9 Indiana Homeland Security District Plan Oversight Committee, and have experience with Workforce Development, Emergency Management Services, Enhanced 911 Services, and various community development efforts. I am committed to Madison. I am the right person to provide leadership, long-term vision and the passion needed to move Madison forward. It is time,” said Berry.
