| Collapse all
- Prioritizing community care, I am concerned about community safety, youth violence, and blighted properties. This ward includes schools, hospitals, small businesses, a large number of maturing community neighbors, along with youthful growing families that all need supportive care to flourish. So I want to identify all issues of safety by reviving a neighborhood watch group, creating space for 3rd Ward community members to share concerns, and creating community strategies for improvement that can be taken to city leaders for support that will drive progress. I want a efficient process of locating blighted property owners, identifying the factors, and impose ordinances when necessary. Support homeowners and future homeowners with education.
- Unlocking community potential, I want to work with Unions, Schools, Transit and, the local Workforce leaders to create strategies to work together to bring economic progress to Mansfield. I would like to help the Unions gain more qualified workers through educational partnership support with local schools; To create educational plans that teach essential skills that can place job-ready individuals in prevailing wages positions right after training is completed. Additionally, I would like to utilize the support of workforce partners to assist with the needed tools and work attire to remove some of the barriers the newly skilled workers have. I also want to support the elevation of community education
- Fostering collaboration and collective impact, I want to work across party lines, multi-generational lines, and Socioeconomic factors to make improvements that will support future generations here in Mansfield. Safety is an issue for all of us. And what we are currently seeing in city violence must be addressed, or it will negatively impact all of us. I will do this by coordinating (through neighborhood watch, local coalitions, schools, and unions) with constituents and people in leadership positions to make productive changes in our communities. Additionally, I would like to work with my local Council and Council members from other cities that have overcome youth violence, transit barriers, and improved educational alignment.
2. Budget oversight and collaboration with city officials to allocate funds wisely. To ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent effectively on services, road maintenance, public parks, and emergency services.
