2017 Candidate Interview:  Joe LaRussa for Farmington City Council

(Crystal A. Proxmire, July 5, 2017)

Rochester Hills, MI  – Farmington resident Joe (Joseph) LaRussa is running for a seat on City Council for the Nov. 7, 2017 election.

At the time of this interview we do not know the complete list of those running, but that will be added once available.

LaRussa has been an engineer in the automotive industry for about 15 years.

“This is the community I’m raising my family in.  It’s the community I care very deeply about and I see a lot of the work that’s being done to make Farmington a better community, a more engaging community, and so for me it’s important to be part of that process because I think people like me who have skills can contribute posititively to the dialogues going on about road construction, development, [and] economic growth,” LaRussa said.  “I feel like those skills are important.”
