CRAN Endorses Meg Anandarangam for Plainfield City Council Ward 1
Like many Plainfield residents, Anandarangam has experienced the city’s flooding firsthand. During last year’s storms, her own car was nearly swept away as streets filled with fast-moving water, a reality that many families across Plainfield faced as homes and neighborhoods were impacted. The same flooding took the lives of two residents after a vehicle was swept into Cedar Brook, at a location where resilience improvements had been proposed but never implemented after federal Building Resilient Infrastructure and Communities (BRIC) funding was canceled. That experience has shaped a campaign focused on practical solutions: improving stormwater management, strengthening infrastructure, and making sure residents are not left to deal with the impacts alone. She has also pledged to take zero dollars from fossil fuel interests or AI related PACs, reinforcing a commitment to independent, community-first leadership.
