Tom Craig: Committed to Our Community

Preserving Small Town Done Right

Inverness is more than just a place to live—it's a community with a unique character that we all cherish. My commitment is to preserve our small-town charm while guiding responsible growth. I’m not here to reinvent the wheel, but to ensure that Inverness remains a place we’re proud to call home, now and in the future.

Balancing Growth with Nature

Inverness is on the brink of change, and with change comes responsibility. We can’t stop progress, but we can shape it. I believe in a balanced approach that respects our natural environment while fostering opportunities for our residents. I want to hear from you—what kind of growth do you envision? Together, we can make sure it’s the right kind for our community.

Fiscal Responsibility

As someone who has built businesses from the ground up, I understand the importance of making smart, informed decisions when it comes to spending. Every dollar spent by the city should benefit our residents. I will work to ensure that our tax dollars are used wisely, without unnecessary waste, so that Inverness continues to thrive.

Community Engagement

Inverness is a community that thrives on participation. I believe in the power of asking questions and listening to the answers. As your City Council representative, I will ensure that your voice is heard and that the decisions made at City Hall reflect the will of the people. Whether it’s through town halls, surveys, or simply stopping me on the street, I’m here to listen.

Supporting Local Culture and Business

Our local businesses and cultural institutions are the heartbeat of Inverness. As CEO of the Inverness Arts + Culture Alliance and Festival Director for the Inverness Fine Arts Festival, I’ve seen firsthand how vital these elements are to our community’s identity. I will advocate for policies that support our local economy, from small businesses to the arts, ensuring they continue to flourish.

Experience You Can Trust

With decades of experience in business, public service, and community advocacy, I bring a well-rounded perspective to the City Council. I’m not just talking about making a difference—I’m rolling up my sleeves and getting things done, just like I’ve done throughout my career.

A Vision for the Future

Inverness is a place where tradition meets opportunity. My vision is simple: to protect what we love about our town while planning wisely for the future. With your support, we can keep Inverness a “Small Town Done Right” for generations to come.
