Campaign website
Lloyd's campaign website stated the following:
Platform & Priorities
Housing
I will work to ensure residents have access to safe, stable, and affordable housing. No one should have to spend most of their income on housing.
Youth Opportunities
I will work to ensure our young people have more pathways to grow, learn, and thrive in our city. They are both the present and the future, and we should prepare them for success at every level.
Economic Mobility
I will work to ensure residents and families have real opportunities to build long-term financial stability and success. When residents earn a livable wage, we will see improvements in homelessness, community health, and safety.
