Criminal Justice / Public Safety We need to give our police department the resources and support it needs to attract, train and retain the best officers to make our community the safest jurisdiction of its size in the country. Infrastructure / Transportation We need to continue to improve our zoning, permitting and regulatory environment so we can create and grow businesses in the County, reduce the cost of living, provide affordable housing and create places that will keep our graduates and seniors here. Infrastructure / Transportation Traffic congestion destroys our quality of life. I am an advocate for common sense creative transportation solutions that get people moving and to their jobs and homes faster. Education I still have the passion to make our school system the best in the nation by funneling resources into the classroom and on the teachers and students, not on administrators and administrative burdens. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will continue my efforts to address the public safety issue of panhandling. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I still have the passion to protect our suburban neighborhoods from blight, crime and gangs. Education To support our teachers who are dealing with the impacts of two years without in person learning on our students. Taxes / Budget Cutting government spending & lowering taxes.
