Other than clean water, public safety should be the most important priority of city government.

According to the national Association of Realtors, the US has under built it’s housing needs by at least 5 1/2 million units over the past 20 years. We need to increase the supply of attainable housing, especially multi family units within our city, allowing access for first time homebuyers, whether that be a townhome, a condominium or a single-family home.
From the age of 11, until I was 15 years old, I delivered newspapers in Fort Collins, Colorado. The Fort Collins Colorado and, or the Rocky Mountain News. It was a commitment to get up before dawn, roll newspapers and deliver them in even the harshest Colorado weather.
