| Most important issue: | City spending and rapid growth. Watching city spending on big projects spike sharply, it is time for the big projects to slow down. We all want to feel safe in our homes: Yes, of course physically safe, but also financially safe from high taxes; safe from radical changes in our neighborhoods due to rezoning and development, and safe from having our roads and schools overwhelmed by profit-driven, out of control growth. I am free from local business ties and conflicting loyalties. I represent the pure interests of residents and families. |
