Campaign website
Rickey's campaign website stated the following:
ISSUES
I oppose the City overspending, then demanding the public to pay for their financial mismanagement
We need to stop raising taxes and creating fees to cover bad policies
Appropriately align City staffing to improve core services
Give the tools and lasting support to increase Public Safety
Increase Civic involvement in City operations
Repair and Improve existing infrastructure before spending on new projects
Ensure City planned goals are met or goal based development plans are realigned when expectations are not realized
Give communities more control over their neighborhood's redevelopment rather than hand-pick groups appointed by outsiders
HOLD GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS ACCOUNTABLE BOTH BUREAUCRATS AND ELECTED OFFICIALS
