Campaign website

Burke's campaign website stated the following:

Main Points

  • Taxes
  • Streets
  • Education
  • Police/Fire

Economics
I want to bring relief to small business directly effected by Covid-19. I would like to get in touch with some of the business owners that closed, and see what it would take to get the reopen. Then find resources to make that happen.

Make Arlington Family Friendly
All the major cities around us have family friendly fun entertainment.

Fort Worth has

The Fort Worth Zoo
The Trinity Trails
The Water Gardens
Casa Manana
Museums, drive in movie theaters the list goes on.

What does Arlington Texas have in the middle of the City?
We have Texas live and Sports. Which is a great attraction for sports and night life..

But what about the families. We need something, something we can call our own. I want to build the Arlington Entertainment District which is firmly routed and created for families to go out and have some good family-friendly fun.

I would have a park, with a nature walk and center, a bowling alley, Arcade a Museum, and restaurants all centered around kids and family.

This would bring more jobs for the city, more income our citizens would spend more dollars here instead of going to other cities for this family fun.

But ultimately it would bring families to our great city.[1]
