Updating and repairing our roads, water, and sewer lines. Many of our infrastructure is old and needs to be maintained and/or updated. We have been making progress in addressing the areas most in need of repair and I would like to see the work continue.
I have enjoyed working with the Mayor and City Manager to ensure our community is best served with the limited funds we have available. Setting priorities and seeing them take shape is very rewarding.
Our water and sewer lines are out of date. We have been working on addressing the ones with critical needs and as one project is complete, we allocate funding for the next one. It is a long process, but the work is getting done.
