Position Papers
Miller Avenue Precise Plan
I believe we do need a plan for Miller Avenue, and I generally support most of the streetscape improvements and the mixed use concept, but I fear relaxing our building standards will allow the intensity of development to get out of control.
Helping our Local Businesses
The City needs to take the leadership in helping our small town businesses to better serve our residents. We need to assess the composition and vitality of our businesses and develop a proactive approach to support them.
Other Detailed Position Statements
Since we are limited to three position papers, I have included here my positions on 1) Affordable Housing, 2)Emergency Preparedness, 3)Transportation, 4) City-Public Communications and 5) A Greener City.
