Respond in a timely manner to all resident's concerns. Address those concerns with the appropriate Department to work towards a resolution. Attend all Committee and Council meetings to have knowledge of what's going on in the City. Work with Engineering and other Ward Councilmembers on selection of residential streets to repair and to fairly split funds between the Wards.

I was a Professional Administrative Assistant for over 20 years. I bring organizational skills as well as the ability to speak with and understand the needs of our residents.
Residential Streets are my passion and I work closely each year with Engineering to ensure the 6th Ward streets are strategically selection to optimize available funds. My timeline is yearly as the street selection is a yearly process. Work closely with the Director of Parks and Recreation to ensure that West Park and Washington Village Park takes advantage of all available grants and funds. This is a yearly process.
