My fellow San Paroans,

I share your anger. This is not the city of our fore-fathers. When San Paro was established, it was an Earthly paradise. Now it's a city at war. We are under siege from evil and corrupt Criminal forces that want to steal our city. I say it's time we showed them they aren't getting it!

Many of you will remember my father, Mayor John Derren. He was a great and honorable man. You elected him, on a Social Progressive ticket, to fix our city’s problems.

We all share the memory of that terrible day when Luke Waskawi gunned my father down in cold blood on the steps of City Hall.

We all know that Luke did not serve his full sentence. He never fully atoned for the terrible crime he committed. Sadly, he chose to devote his life to crime and injustice rather than using his extraordinary intelligence and talents to help this city. He robbed us all of the clean up this city hoped for. My office even now has intelligence that suggests he continues to rob us of a bright future by luring young people into a life of crime.

What he cannot steal from us is my father's vision. I have his papers: all of his collected knowledge about this city, its people, and how to clean it up is written in those pages. We can stop the Criminals, San Paro! We can take back our city and make it once more a legendary place that draws tourists from all over the world.

You deserve someone who will lead you towards a brighter, safer future. I am mayor because you chose me. The Derren name means something in San Paro, and I mean to live up to that.

 

I've already started making necessary changes, like replacing SPPD Commissioner Thirly with Commissioner Carter. I'm asking you to show him the same trust and support you've so generously shown me.

But the problems we face are too big for me to fix alone. I can appoint the best, brightest, and most dedicated people to key positions but we still need your help.

The City Security Act allows organizations of enthusiastic and well-intentioned San Paroans to join in the effort to reclaim the city. Working with the San Paro Police Department they help us ensure adequate coverage of specific areas with no cost to the tax-payer.  The Praetorians and Prentiss Tigers are already making a difference on the incidence of crime in their areas.

It's time, San Paro! Let's take our city back!

Jane Derren, Mayor.
