I have experience on both the Traffic Safety Advisory Board and the Parks and Recreation Board. I am a homeowner, educator, business member and stay-at-home dad. I am kindly asking for your vote. I believe I will have a positive impact on the future of this City. I am prepared to do the hard work to be an effective city councilor. Check my record. As a member of the Traffic Safety Advisory Board I
have
-worked with community members and city staff to make safety improvements.
-spearheaded effort to place “Stop” signs at Max Patterson Park. -identified and collaborated to resolve traffic safety issues near the high school.
-consistently voiced the concerns of citizens and worked to resolve them. As a member on the Parks and Recreation Board I have. - worked to resist selling park land and greenspaces. - worked to improve accessibility for the children and senior residents.
-started discussions to expand and improve our trail system. My 4 year goals included but are not limited to. -fixing our most dangerous intersection at Arlington Rd. and Route 99.
-helping business succeed and encouraging investment in our Downtown.
-finishing the Portland Ave. pedestrian bridge. -improving walkability by promoting painted crosswalks and other traffic safety measures. -being open minded and eager to listen to the community. I believe a vibrant city must be a safe city for all our citizens and visitors. As our population increases we must be ahead of the issues that impact public safety, the environment and transportation. A vote for me is a vote for civility, inclusivity and a level-headed approach to problem solving.
