Campaign themes
2014
Norris' website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]
Emergency Preparedness
- Excerpt: "People must be ready, willing and able to mobilize in their communities as they await for first responders and ‘help’ to arrive. And finally after ‘the storm’ how will people adjust, get re-acclamated to their lifestyle – and deal with the aftermath and challenges such as working with insurance/damaged property; washed out roads and transportation; personal loss; and emotional devastation?"
Quality of Life
- Excerpt: "WE ALL must work together to ensure that our nation’s principles of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are not co-opted or compromised by corporate bottom line for profits."
Transportation
- Excerpt: "As of now, there are still questions that remain unanswered about these developments and it is critical that JeffCo residents are kept in the loop during the lifecycle of these major infrastructure projects."
Water Conservation
- Excerpt: "Whether created by mother nature or man made, droughts, wildfires, farmers, brewers and JeffCo residents like you, have a great need for clean water. In Arvada we have protocols in place for new businesses and the provisioning and accessibility to water they will use."
