- REVITALIZATION OF DOWNTOWN/ECONOMIC STABILITY
-
My philosophy: I believe that our downtown city core is in need of economic stimulus and greater synergy of the businesses that are down there today. We are lacking some key elements that will truly benefit and revitalize our downtown. My belief is that we can turn this around by:
- TRANSPORTATION ISSUES
-
My Philosophy: I believe we must work for reasonable solutions on a regional basis to divert traffic around our community and not through it, while assuring that much needed traffic improvements made in our community promote safety, mobility, and preservation of our village character.
- Preserving our Historical Character, Equestrian Lifestyle, and Abundant Open Spaces
-
We all moved to this beautiful valley because of its protected ridgelines, wonderful climate, miles of trails, and the 40% of open space in our city. I will protect this open space, the equestrian lifestyle, and add additional recreational opportunities for all our residents.
