issues and priorities
Ensuring the safety of our community would be my top priority as your council member. I will focus on continuing Streetsboro's reputation for low crime and advocating for increased funding for emergency services, working diligently to create a secure environment for all residents.
As our community continues to grow, the development and maintenance of small businesses hold immense significance. Attracting new businesses to Streetsboro should be a collective priority for every council member, fostering a thriving local economy and ensuring the prosperity of our town.
Maintaining our roads and essential infrastructure while also implementing improved technology for streamlined government services, will be a crucial aspect of my involvement. I am dedicated to enhancing our community's overall functioning, ensuring efficient services and a well-maintained infrastructure.
With my existing role on the Parks and Recreation committee, I am well-positioned to further advance my efforts in benefitting the Streetsboro community. I will actively pursue initiatives for clean energy, establish better recycling programs, and create additional green spaces, championing our commitment to a sustainable and eco-friendly environment.
My deep involvement in the community reinforces the importance of open dialogue between citizens and local government. It is vital to have a government that not only listens but actively works for the people. I am dedicated to facilitating this dialogue and ensuring that our government is accountable and responsive to the needs of our community.
