Support John Urban for Town Commissioner

JOHN URBAN is a steady, experienced leader with deep roots in Matthews and a clear record of service. As a licensed architect and longtime Commissioner, he brings technical expertise and community insight to every decision, advancing public safety, economic development, and thoughtful growth. His design background informs infrastructure planning and aesthetic standards, helping shape a town that's both functional and true to its character. I proudly support his continued service on the Town Board.


Former Mayor Endorsements

R. Lee Myers- 18 years Mayor of Matthews

When is the last time you had 100% confidence in your elected representative? Sometimes wonder where things are headed…..?

For my confidence boost I look to 14-year veteran Council Member John Urban. I know he is well prepared and ready to make the best tough decision for Matthews today and for the next 25+ years.

Trust and confidence by my fellow citizens was really important to me during my 22 years of elected service (18 years as Mayor, 4 years Town Council). So when I tell you 100% I mean it with John Urban. 

John Urban is respectful, engaged and prepared. Do I always agree with everything he says – no, but I know and understand his position because he communicates.

John Urban is not a “follower” but he stands with all the people of Matthews as a leader. His family and professional base are located in Matthews. He knows his people and his community at every single level. John Urban is grounded and while independent he is a team player. We desperately need him to continue for us.

Jim Taylor- 8 years Mayor of Matthews, 10 years Commissioner

 John studies the issues, approaches the issues with an open mind and weighs the views of the entire community when he makes decisions. We need him on the Matthews Town Board.

Please join me in supporting John Urban for the Matthews Board of Commissioners. He is the most qualified, most prepared, most open-minded member of the board and deserving of our continued support.

Paul Bailey- 2 years Mayor of Matthews, 18 years Commissioner

 John is an experienced and forthright individual who has been committed to serving Matthews for over 20 years. John's background as an architect and his approach to reaching positive solutions for our Town have made him an instrumental part of making Matthews what is today. Having had the opportunity to serve Matthews with John Urban, I wholeheartedly support John for Matthews Town Commissioner.

Kress Query- 5 years Mayor of Matthews, 24 years Commissioner

John Urban has more experience as Commissioner than anyone on our council and he is best informed on the issues that matter to Matthews. John always does his due diligence before voting on any issue. He and I have not always agreed on matters, but he has always listened to my concerns with consideration before voting the way he thought best. We maintained a strong friendship and shared a common goal to do what was right for Matthews, and I trust John will continue to move forward with decisions that will make Matthews a great community in which to live, work, and play.
