Pride is a celebration of the qualities that make our city special: diversity, inclusion, and individuality.

I was honored to join the Pride Flag raising at City Hall today to send the message that our city welcomes, accepts, and embraces everyone for who they are.

Let’s continue to show love, support, and respect to all our neighbors – this month and throughout the year.

Today, we pause to pay our respects to the selfless men and women who paid the ultimate price to protect our country.

Their sacrifice and suffering have safeguarded the freedoms that we enjoy every day.

We remember, and we are deeply grateful.

As we observe four years since the May 14 mass shooting, I join our community in remembering the victims and supporting the families and survivors.

Let us stand united against division, choose love over hatred, and work toward strengthening the Black communities that were targeted in that racist attack.

And let us always remember the names and the legacies of those who we lost that day:

Celestine Chaney
Roberta A. Drury
Andre S. Mackniel
Katherine E. Massey
Margus D. Morrison
Heyward Patterson
Aaron Salter, Jr.
Geraldine C. Talley

As we deliberate property tax increases in the proposed budget, we want to make sure residents are taking advantage of every opportunity to ease their tax obligations.

We have numerous tax exemption programs to assist homeowners. That includes the STAR credit for those who earn up to $500,000, as well as exemptions for veterans, seniors, and those living with disabilities.

Apply for these programs to help reduce your next property tax bill.

I recently had the honor of celebrating the Westminster Economic Development Initiative's 20-year anniversary!

From opening the West Side Bazaar to providing education programs to youth and technical assistance and microgrants to local entrepreneurs, this organization has done so much to support small businesses and strengthen our community.

When I began my tenure as a Councilmember 18 years ago, WEDI was just in its infancy. It's been a pleasure watching this organization grow and execute its mission over the years.

I look forward to seeing this amazing organization continue to grow and serve our community.
