Top Issues

Infrastructure / Transportation When we build a section of road we must do it right, and when we repair a void we must get down to the root of the problem (weak base or subgrade) or we will be back throwing money at the same problem again in a short amount of time. Infrastructure / Transportation Seek State and Federal Grants: The city and county can apply for state and federal funding, such as Solid Waste Infrastructure and Recycling (SWIFR) and Recycling and Illegal Dumping (RAID) grants, to improve local recycling efforts. Criminal Justice / Public Safety County and city law enforcement should continue to actively pursue charges against illegal dumpers. Infrastructure / Transportation The city must secure consistent funding and prioritize investments in new, reliable equipment for its sanitation department.
