Positions
Economy & Taxes
The candidate emphasizes affordability and says she will pursue state and federal grant funding to pay for infrastructure and disaster recovery projects “without increasing city taxes.” Her platform proposes modest user fees (an annual downtown parking decal) with exemptions for seniors and downtown employees and highlights concerns about rising property taxes and insurance costs. Overall she prioritizes avoiding new city tax increases while seeking external funding sources and targeted fees.
Healthcare
The candidate supports addressing homelessness and mental-health challenges by connecting people with local service providers and expanding access to services; the campaign platform also emphasizes improving public transportation to help residents reach medical appointments. No statements on federal healthcare reforms (e.g., Medicare for All or ACA expansion) were found in the cited materials.
