Infrastructure / Transportation
To maintain Foley's charm while accommodating growth, Roddy supports smart zoning that preserves the character of our neighborhoods, protects property values, and maintains high quality of life. He does not support high-density developments that strain infrastructure, increase traffic and change the fabric of our community.
