Infrastructure / Transportation As Idaho Falls continues to grow, it’s critical that our roads, utilities, and public spaces keep pace. I will advocate for responsible, long-term planning through reasonalbe impact fees that prevents overburdening our existing systems. Smart infrastructure investments will keep our city strong and livable for years to come. Taxes / Budget Will work to ensure city spending is transparent, efficient, and focused on core priorities such as safety, infrastructure, and essential services. By eliminating waste and avoiding unnecessary bureaucracy, we can keep taxes reasonable while still maintaining the services residents depend on. Infrastructure / Transportation Reliable and affordable utilities are essential to every household and business. I will prioritize the long-term stability of our water, sewer, and power systems while ensuring rates remain fair. Criminal Justice / Public Safety The Idaho Falls Police Department has my full support, and I am committed to ensuring our officers have the training, resources, and community backing they need to do their jobs effectively and return safely to their families at the end of every shift. Economy I support reducing red tape for small business owners, streamlining permits, and fostering an environment that attracts new employers. Social Services I support maintaining and improving our parks, recreation opportunities, and community programs. Strong neighborhoods and vibrant public spaces are what make Idaho Falls a place we’re all proud to call home.
