Community Activist Enters Race For Anoka County Commissioner

FRIDLEY, MN — Mandy Meisner, who currently serves as community relations manager with the North Metro Mayors Association, has announced she is seeking to become Anoka County Commissioner in District Four. Current county commissioner Jim Kordiak of Fridley is not running for reelection.

Together with his father, Albert Kordiak, they have represented the southern portion of Anoka County on the county board for 64 continuous years.

Meisner said her three primary goals are:

1. Build relationships between civic and community resources to promote economic growth;
2. Recognize and represent the changing diversity of Anoka County; and
3. Support a vibrant Anoka County through job creation and elevating educational opportunities.

“Being an Anoka County Commissioner has always been of interest to me because it is truly the most productive way to bring civic and community resources together to build a greater whole,” Meisner said in a statement. “I am a community activist. I have never thought of myself as a politician, which is why I know I am the right choice to work hard for all of Anoka County.”
