Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Supports fiscal responsibility, taxpayer protection, and property tax reform while favoring careful review of large, costly projects and use of tax credits tied to job creation. Emphasizes efficiency in city spending and skepticism of proposals that would 'drain resources' from taxpayers. Advocates policies aimed at supporting workforce development and blue-collar growth alongside targeted tax measures rather than broad tax increases.

Public Safety & Guns

The candidate emphasizes addressing crime by hiring more police and increasing community awareness but declined to provide detailed public-safety plans. There is no clear statement on gun-policy specifics such as background checks, assault-weapons bans, red-flag laws, or gun-carry rules in the available campaign materials and interviews.
