Grand Haven City Council

Top Issues

Economy Supporting local businesses, creating year-round opportunities, and attracting and keeping new businesses helps make Grand Haven a place where people and companies want to invest. Housing programs and neighborhood revitalization will keep our communities vibrant, resilient, and inclusive. Government Reform As a City Council member, I’ll find common ground, work with other leaders, and inspire residents to engage through committees, events, and local initiatives—so together we can build a stronger, more connected Grand Haven. Environment / Energy Protecting our natural resources is something we all rely on. Lake Michigan, our coastline, and our green spaces aren’t just beautiful—they’re vital to our health, our economy, and our community identity. By caring for our ecosystems and preserving what makes Grand Haven so special, we can keep our city healthy and resilient for today and for generations to come.
