Lincoln Parish residents are invited to meet Ruston Alderman Bruce Siegmund and hear his vision for the future of the city during his campaign kickoff event on Monday, July 27, at Tanyard Creek Student Center.

The come-and-go event will be held from 5-7 p.m. at Tanyard Creek Student Center, 402 Harley Lane in Ruston, where attendees will enjoy finger food treats while hearing a campaign update from Siegmund as he officially launches his campaign for re-election to the Ruston Board of Aldermen representing Ward 5.

Hosted by Mayor Ronny Walker and his wife, Kay, the event will provide residents with an opportunity to visit one-on-one with Siegmund, discuss the issues facing Ruston and learn more about the priorities he hopes to continue advancing after 12 years of service on the Ruston Board of Aldermen.

Walker said Siegmund’s leadership has played an important role in Ruston’s continued success and believes he has earned another term representing the citizens of Ward 5.

“I am proud to endorse Bruce Siegmund for re-election to the City Council, District 5,” Walker said. “Bruce has served our community with integrity, sound judgment and a steady commitment to doing what is best for the citizens of Ruston. He has been a valuable partner in helping move our city forward, and I appreciate his thoughtful leadership, commitment to progress and willingness to work collaboratively to move our city forward. I ask the citizens of District 5 to join me in supporting Bruce Siegmund for re-election.”

For Siegmund, the campaign is about building on the momentum Ruston has experienced over the past decade while ensuring the city remains focused on responsible growth, strong neighborhoods and sound financial management.

A 47 year Ruston resident, Siegmund has served on the Ruston Board of Aldermen for the past 12 years. During that time, the city has experienced unprecedented economic growth, welcomed new businesses and industries, invested millions of dollars in infrastructure improvements and continued enhancing the quality of life for residents throughout the community. All of this has been done while remaining fiscally sound in budgeting. 

As a member of the Board of Aldermen, Siegmund has worked alongside Mayor Walker and his fellow aldermen to support investments in streets, utilities, parks, public safety and recreational facilities while helping guide Ruston through one of the most significant periods of growth in its history. 

His tenure has coincided with the continued revitalization of downtown Ruston, expansion of parks and walking trails, improvements to city infrastructure and strategic economic development projects that continue to attract new businesses, jobs and investment. Most recently, Ruston’s continued growth along the Interstate 20 corridor has positioned the city for even greater opportunities in the years ahead.

Siegmund believes that success has come through collaboration, careful planning and a commitment to making decisions that serve the best interests of the community. His campaign is centered on continuing that approach by maintaining fiscal responsibility, investing in infrastructure, supporting public safety and encouraging responsible economic development while preserving the hometown quality of life that makes Ruston unique.

Just as importantly, Siegmund says effective local government begins with listening to the people it serves.

Rather than a traditional political rally, Monday’s campaign kickoff is intended to provide an opportunity for meaningful conversations with residents. Guests are encouraged to stop by at any time during the two-hour event to enjoy refreshments, ask questions and share their thoughts about the future of Ruston.

Whether discussing neighborhood concerns, infrastructure improvements, economic development or public safety, Siegmund says hearing directly from citizens has always been one of the most rewarding aspects of serving in public office.

Supporters say Siegmund has earned a reputation for being accessible, thoughtful and willing to listen before making decisions. They point to his collaborative leadership style, steady approach and commitment to practical solutions as qualities that have helped Ruston continue moving forward while maintaining the character that has made it one of North Louisiana’s premier communities.

As he seeks another term, Siegmund says he is grateful for the trust residents have placed in him over the past 12 years and looks forward to continuing to work with fellow city leaders and citizens to build on Ruston’s momentum.

Everyone is invited to attend the campaign kickoff on Monday, July 27, from 5-7 p.m. at Tanyard Creek Student Center, 402 Harley Lane in Ruston. The event is come-and-go, and guests will enjoy refreshments while hearing a campaign update from Siegmund and learning more about his vision for Ruston’s future.
