I am running because I care deeply about this community and I strive to listen and look for solutions to problems. I believe in our community and I want to continue to serve it on the city council.
I fully support the proposed 3/4 percent sales tax for commercial air service, public transportation and ground ambulance service. These are essential services for the health, safety, and future of our community. Local air service strengthens our economy and helps attract businesses, workers, and services. Ambulance service is critical when minutes matter. Public transportation helps people get to work, medical appointments, school, and basic services. The proposed tax is an investment in the future of our community.
We need to consider people at every stage of life and income level as we discuss this. We need apartments and homes available to rent, smaller starter homes for first-time buyers, and appropriate options for families who need more space. We need to determine where the shortages are in our community then determine what barriers are preventing those homes from being built. If zoning, infrastructure, permitting, or other rules are part of the problem, we should work practically to remove or reduce those barriers while keeping smart community planning in place.
A vibrant and livable city is one with children in it. We need to attract and keep young families here so our community continues to grow. We need to focus on safe neighborhoods, good schools, recreation opportunities , housing opportunities, and job opportunities. We need to encourage small businesses. Our city should be a place where children are raised, supported, and eventually want to stay. We want our young people to carry the torch, and a healthy community gives them every reason to build their lives and raise their own families here.
