PRIORITIES
I care about our community! I know you do too.
​St. Louis Park is a special place.
I look forward to working with you to build an even more equitable,
sustainable, welcoming, and safe community, for everyone.
Here are some of my priorities and policy objectives for the next term:
 
Picture
  • Continue to build out our system of sidewalks and trails with a focus on "interested but concerned" users like families and children. 
  • Make smart investments to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and serve as a model for other cities in that effort. 
  • Work with the police department and other community partners to improve our response  to mental health issues in the community.
  • Work with City and Hennepin County staff to create a safer Minnetonka Boulevard for all.
  • Explore programs and policies that limit or stop the purchase of affordable homes by out-of-town investors for use as rental properties. When low- and moderate-income individuals and families can own these homes instead of renting, they have the opportunity to build wealth for themselves and future generations. 
  • Take a closer look at Tax-Increment Financing (TIF) to ensure this public subsidy is providing the best return on investment for the community.
  • Explore changes to single-family zoning as a way to increase housing supply, reduce housing costs, and create more racially and economically integrated neighborhoods​.
  • Provide funding and other support to the school district to ensure all students in all our schools have regular and ongoing access to Westwood Hills Nature Center. ​
  • Continue to improve our methods for gathering and incorporating broad public input into all council decision-making.
