Alan Hansen, 35, 3221 S. 52nd St.,
is employed by Burlington Northern and
finished third in the 1979 mayoral prim
ary. He is a Democrat. His views:
The economy - "We should take the
development proposals we have and
implement them and test them." Hansen
said the Comprehensive Plan for Lincoln
and Lancaster County is central to econ
omic development planning and that the
city should grow not just for financial
gain, but should keep environmental
concerns in mind.
Administration goals - Hansen said he
sees city employees in conflict with the
city administration. He wants to establish
groups of city employees to study
problems in their own departments. Using
the brain power of employees will increase
efficiency, he said.
Changes in city government Hansen
said he has no plans to make changes, but
would first see if problems exist in any
department. He said he would like to be
a part of labor negotiations between
unionized employees and the city.
UNLcity cooperation - Hansen agrees
with City Councilman Eric Youngberg's
assessment of the university's worth to
the city. "If the city had to pay for what
the university is worth, UNL would never
need another dime from the state. In other
words, the city couldn't afford it," Hansen
said.
Qualifications - Hansen said he has
rapport with all segments of the com
munity and understands the concerns of
the working middle class because he
belongs to that class. He also emphasized
his moral values, based on the Bible, and
his honesty and integrity, with which he
says he lives every day. Hansen is an
elder in the Covenant Presbyterian Church.
Joseph Hampton, 57, 7125 S. Hampton
Road, is chairman of the city council and
a real estate developer. He is a Republ
ican. His comments:
The economy - "We need to put
together a team of top-level professionals
to analyze the community and sell it on
its best points." Expanding businesses
and attracting new ones is the goal, he said.
Administration goals - Improvement
of streets and better street planning top
the list, Hampton said.
Changes in city government - "I would
like to instill the attitude that when a
citizen walks into city hall, we should
view it as an opportunity to do something
positive; not as a problem."
UNLcity cooperation - "There are a
said the city made a mistake in telling IBM
where to locate a proposed branch in
Lincoln. IBM decided to go to Denver
instead. A firm like IBM would provide
opportunities for both the university and
the city, lie said, as would businesses
that might want to take advantage of

development experts.
Qualifications - Hampton cited his J 5
year's of business experience, six years
on the city council, and presidency of the
Nebraska League of Municipalities.
Charles Loos. 35, 4422 Starr St left
his job as a car salesman Thursday. His
plans for employment are "to be mayor
of Lincoln;' he said. He is a Democrat.
His comments:
The economy - Lincoln needs to
overcome its image as an anti-union city,
Loos said. Weak unions mean low wages
and less protection for workers during
a recession, he said.
Administration goals - Loos said he
would improve the position of
handicapped people and increase their
access to buildings in the city. He also
wants to improve the quality of materials
used in street repairs. Repairs will be
cheaper in the long run if more durable
materials are used, he said.
Changes in city government - "I
don't know who is doing what to whom,
but after observing the situation, I would
probably want to make some changes."
UNLcity cooperation - Loos said
the two should work hand in hand to
improve Lincoln.
Qualifications - "I am a tough-minded
optimist. I believe in the values set down
by my forefathers. I believe in God and in
good."
Roger Lott, 38, 1400 Manchester Drive,
is an attorney and a Democrat. His views:
The economy - To help businesses
that are already here, Lott proposes that
the city help them plan, design and finance
expansion and give financial assistance
where appropriate.
Administration goals - Lott would
like to promote growth in West Lincoln
by eliminating barriers to growth there.
He said he would concentrate on long
term planning for city transportation.
Changes in city government - Lott
said he would look at the police and fire
departments to see if more people should
be hired and whether more training is
needed.
UNLcity cooperation - Alumni
should help sell Lincoln to outsiders, he
said, and university experts could provide
consultant services to the city. Lincoln
should also use the university as a base to
recruit businesses like the technological
ones in California's Silicon Valley.
Qualifications - "I see myself as
somebody that can get a lot done. I have
lots of contacts and support in all areas
of the community."
Roland Luedtke, 59, 327 Park Vista,
was until January the state's lieutenant
governor. He is a Republican. His views:
The economy - Luedtke sees Lincoln
as competing with other cities for business
He says it will take salesmanship,
leadership and the cooperation of the
Chamber of Commerce to attract
businesses. Luedtke said that the city and
the Chamber of Commerce are duplicating
their promotion efforts and that the city
should contract with the chamber to
promote Lincoln.
Administration goals - Luedtke's
major goal is to get people to work
together on problems, especially business
and labor interests.
Changes in city government - "If
it's working, you don't need to fix it."
Luedtke said citizen input should be
collected differently, but he did not
specify how.
UNLcity cooperation - "Lincoln is
ideal for all these high-tech Silicon Valley
industries. It has a ready labor market,
good educational facilities and quality of
life." He said the university's agriculture
department also might attract businesses
that work with genetic engineering.
Qualifications - "I'm the only
candidate with both legislative and
executive experience and experience in
business and law. I'm a people person. I
work with them well." Luedtke said his
experience in state government will be
important when the city seeks federal
funds.
Willie Nelson, 20, a UNL chemistry
major, was the last candidate to file. He
works part time at a factory and lives at
2045 N. 64th St. His views:
The economy - "We'd have to be the
type of government that isn't as
conservative as we've been." Nelson said
the city should take some risks to promote
the economy.
Administration goals - Nelson wants an
administration that is friendly, accessible
and casual.
Changes in city government - Nelson
would not fire any department heads,
but said department employees should be
consulted to see who they would want to
have in charge if a vacancy arose.
UNLcity cooperation - The university
can help the city design and plan and can
help businesses with management, Nelson
said. Business should seek students' ideas
because they may bring a fresh perspective
to problems.
Qualifications - "I think I'm the only
one who has it really all together. I can
look at things realistically and I'm going
to do my best." Nelson said Luedtke is
well-qualified, but that he "thinks too
much on a state level." He said Carper is
"out in the Twilight Zone" with his
socialist ideas.
