Ford Dynasty Member Says He’ll Make A Run At Memphis Mayor

By Kleinheider Posted on July 3, 2009 at 10:37 am

Ford says he doesn’t like how Mayor Pro Tem to be Myron Lowery is doing business. The issue of Lowery’s transition team, and how Lowery wants to get the Pyramid and Fairgrounds redevelopment issues settled as soon as possible. “He needs to remember he is not the Mayor,” Ford said. “He is the interim. Not the Mayor. The interim. There are things he can do, and there are things he can’t do.”

Ford says right now he’s “100 percent sure” that he’s going to run for City Mayor. If Lowery meets with him and they can reach agreements on issues, he might change his mind. “if I run” Ford says, “…I intend to win.” Ford also expects his legal troubles will be an issue in a campaign. “I dealt with all of that for two years, I can deal with it again,” Ford says.
