Brandon Davis

Brandon Davis (born July 27, 1981 in Fairhope, Baldwin County) is a candidate for District 5 in the 2009 Birmingham City Council election.

Davis grew up in Baldwin County and graduated from Daphne High School. He was awarded a presidential scholarship to Faulkner State Community College and transfered to UAB to complete his degree in psychology and sociology. While a student he volunteered as a tutor at Center Street Middle School.

After graduating Davis worked as a case manager overseeing therapy provided to foster children. In 2005 he left to take a job in the hospitality industry, and is now a manager in food and beverage service. In 2007 he helped organize a "Freedom Bus" in protest of the treatment of six teenagers convicted of battery in Jena, Louisiana.

Davis and his wife Summer are active members of the Guiding Light Church. As a City Council candidate Davis supports the completion of the domed stadium as part of the economic development of the downtown area. He pledges to work toward the redevelopment of demolition of run-down abandoned properties in District 5 and to support the development of a trolley system as a means of reducing traffic and CO2 emissions downtown.
