I Will Restore Your Voice in City Hall

Commitment to Transparency

Fiscal Responsibility

Putting Resident Voices First

Integrity & Family Values

We must be a council that bridges information between key players and residents. Information must flow freely to ensure our community is knowledgeable of how their taxes are spent.

Community Focus

Council must listen to residents and make decisions in accordance with the will of the people. We must make every effort to engage tax-payers in all the ins-outs of city business.

As a finance professional with 20 years of experience, I will look deeply into city expenditures to ensure that our government is not misspending and overspending tax dollars.

As your councilperson, my ethical responsibility to the residents of Cape Coral will be unwavering when it comes to all decisions regarding the present and future of our city.

As councilmembers we must carefully evaluate the projects that we invest in because every decision we make today will leave a positive or negative legacy for future generations.

SEND ME A MESSAGE

Beth Mathis of District 4

"I met William after Hurricane Ian, when he selflessly went around our neighborhood and helped almost 100 elderly residents to remove debris from their home. For weeks he passed around water and made sure everyone had access to gas for their cars. Since then, he has been such a caring and committed neighbor. I've called on him many times and he has always been dependable. He is smart, trustworthy, and such a great listener. I can't think of anyone better to return city council back to the people."

Wayne Larsen of District 4

"My wife and I would like to wholeheartedly endorse William Matthews for City Council. It has been a pleasure to have William and his family as neighbors in the Pelican area. William has an extensive background in finance, as well as being involved in nonprofit work. He is very community-minded. After Hurricane Ian, William was helpful to all his neighbors to clean-up the storm damage, especially older ones who were not able to do so for themselves. We believe William will make an exemplary councilperson for our district."

What My Neighbors Have to Say

Vicky of District 4

"I have immense confidence that William will bring respectable character and strong financial capacities to the council, in order to intelligently speak on behalf of us residents. Due to his experience, I believe he will ask the right questions and evaluate situations in a way that pays tribute to residents. William is a well-respected father, husband, and professional in finance. His character is unmatched and will be an extraordinary representative of the families that call the City of Cape Coral home. We need him now more than ever!"
