Political Career

Oakridge

Head of Commerce

lcn's first entrance into politics was as the Oakridge Head of Commerce in April 2024. lcn ran for this position due to the inactivity of the incumbent, recognizing the importance of an active Head of Commerce.

While serving in this position, lcn proposed three Acts of Council, all of which passed. The first was the Oakridge Commerce Opportunity Act, which established 3 new grants for business owners and landlords in Oakridge to apply for. The second was the Affordable Apartments Act which amended the Oakridge Commerce Opportunity Act to incentive creating affordable apartments. The last Act of Council proposed by lcn this term was the Oakridge Property Standards Act, which aimed to update the building regulations of Oakridge.

On June 12th, 2024, due to the unfair way evictions were handled in the aforementioned Act of Council, the Town of Oakridge was sued by BoopingBerry, in the lawsuit of BoopingBerry v. Town of Oakridge [FCR] 88, where the town ultimately lost and had to return the plot and pay a heavy fine. lcn has referred to this as their "greatest legislative failure," and has sworn to "be a more conscious legislator." The offending sections of the Act of Council were deemed unconstitutional and were amended by the Oakridge Council shortly thereafter.

In June 2024, lcn ran for re-election as Head of Commerce, but lost to Adam_The_Warrior by a 9-12 vote.

On July 22nd, 2024, after the resignation of Adam_The_Warrior from the position of Head of Commerce, lcn ran for the position against Bardiya_King, and won in a 6-5 vote.

lcn's last term as Head of Commerce came after the August 2024 Oakridge Council elections, where they won in a 4-2 vote against totemundying. During this term, lcn proposed eight Acts of Council, of which 4 passed, 2 were rejected, and 2 were rescinded.

lcn did not run for re-election in the October 2024 Oakridge Council elections.

Mayor of Oakridge

On September 18th, 2024, lcn declared their candidacy for the Mayor of Oakridge, with JustaDumpling as their running mate. They ran with a long list of goals and policies, which can be read here in the Oakridge Discord.

On September 25th, 2024, the Department of State declared lcn and JustaDumpling the winners of the election, by a 16-10 vote.

While serving as Mayor, lcn and JustaDumpling created a new spawn fountain, updated building regulations, auctioned plots, approved a log spleef event, named the streets of Oakridge, revitalized Main Street, and improved the lumber mill. In addition to these, lcn created a new ticket system for the Oakridge Discord server, creating new tickets for each of the departments, and the Oakridge military, which was entering a war against Redmont. lcn, alongside the department heads, created new jobs for citizens to apply for.

As Mayor, lcn appointed Yeet_Boy as Chief of Staff and Freeze_Line as Town Attorney and Chief Legal of Oakridge.

On October 30th, 2024, lcn resigned from the position of Mayor of Oakridge. lcn's resignation letter can be read here.
