My Top Issues
Housing
We must focus on increasing housing options for young adults who want to make a living in East Lansing, but cannot afford to rent and may also not be at the point where they are ready (or able) to buy a house. We must also improve housing options for low to middle income people and families who want to be a part of our community but unfortunately are unable to do so.
Legislation
If East Lansing needs to make cuts and raise revenue, it needs to lead from the top. That is why I am proposing a four year pay freeze for members of council and top city staff.
Legislation
I will make sure that the city is as forthcoming as possible with the public, and also work to lower Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) fees to make sure that all residents have easy and affordable access to city records.
