Flagstaff voters will see two public safety-related questions on the November 3rd ballot.

Prop 404 would fund 77 additional public safety positions, such as firefighters, paramedics, wildland fire management personnel, and dispatch call takers.
To generate this funding, Prop 404 would increase the local sales tax by 0.5%, which is the equivalent of an additional 50 cents on a $100 purchase within the City of Flagstaff.

Prop 405 would fund the construction of the Wildland Fire Management Facility, a new fire station to improve response times, expansion of the Flagstaff Police Department and Evidence Warehouse facilities, and a variety of public safety equipment improvements. Prop 405 would authorize a $40M bond, which is structured within the City's existing secondary property tax rate, meaning property tax rates would not increase.

Thank you to the Southside Community Association and Flagstaff for Affordable Housing for hosting tonight's candidate forum at the Murdoch Community Center. I appreciated the tough yet thoughtful questions and opportunity to engage with the Southside neighborhood. The number one thing I heard from table top discussions and the questions throughout tonight's forum was that Southside wants to be seen, heard, remembered, and considered in the decisions made that should serve all of Flagstaff but have historically overlooked this important historic neighborhood. I am committed to continuing to listen, to supporting the elevation of your voices and concerns, and to serving you, and all of Flagstaff, in shaping the collective story of our future while remembering the storied history of our past.

Today, September 8th, is 988 Day, an opportunity to raise awareness and remind us all that connection is possible and help is available.

The 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline connects people experiencing emotional distress, a mental health or substance use crisis, thoughts of su***de, or simply a moment when things feel too heavy to carry alone with trained crisis counselors who are there to listen and help.

No judgment. Just help.

A simple call or text to 988 can connect you with a listening ear, a supportive hand, and someone who can help you find a path through the moment in front of you. You don’t have to know exactly what to say. You don’t have to decide whether what you’re experiencing is “serious enough.” You can just reach out.

In this CommUnity, none of us is alone. We all have moments when we need someone to be there. To lend a hand. To bend an ear. To stand with us in our darkest or heaviest moments. Sometimes, being there for one another starts with simply making sure people know where to turn ... and that there is somewhere to turn.

If you or someone you care about needs support, call or text 988. Remember, CommUnity: Help is just three numbers away.

September is Su***de Prevention Awareness Month, and this week’s theme, "Cultivating Connection Nationwide," feels especially meaningful for Flagstaff.

Connection can look so many different ways. It might be checking in with someone you haven’t heard from in a while ... sitting with a friend who's struggling ... listening without trying to fix everything ... sharing a resource ... or simply reminding someone that they matter. We may not always know what another person is carrying, but we can help create a CommUnity where fewer people have to carry it alone.

In Flagstaff, community is one of our greatest strengths. We are neighbors, relatives, friends, coworkers, classmates, and colleagues whose lives intersect in meaningful ways. Every one of us has a role in building a community where people feel seen, supported, and connected.

This month, let's join in making an intentional effort to reach toward one another. Learn the warning signs. Start conversations that may feel difficult. Ask for help when you need it. Check on the people you love, and make space for them to answer honestly.

If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline ( 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline ). You can also find support and resources at www.FindSupport.gov.

None of us is meant to do this alone. Let’s keep cultivating the connections that make Flagstaff not just a place we live, but a CommUnity where we thrive, together.

I’m truly disappointed to miss today’s screening of Belén while I’m home fighting off a bad cold. I’d been looking forward to seeing it and being part of this CommUnity conversation.

What makes Belén so powerful to me is the way one deeply personal story became part of something much larger ... a movement rooted in dignity, reproductive freedom, and people coming together to insist on change. It’s a reminder that movements often begin when someone’s experience is heard, taken seriously, and carried forward by others.That message feels especially meaningful in our current moment.

If you’re able to go today, tickets are still available at the door. I hope folks will take the opportunity to see the film, support the screening, and join the conversation.

I attended the first community conversation about a potential Drone as First Responder (DFR) program in Flagstaff, held at the Market of Dreams with representatives from Flagstaff Police, Fire, and Emergency Services.

There was a lot of information shared, and a lot of thoughtful community questions about privacy, data, oversight, possible uses, costs, and more.

I've put together these graphics to share some of the information and answers discussed at the meeting, including questions I brought forward on behalf of community members, and some of the resources I'm using to learn more about this program from a variety of perspectives. I welcome you to share other important resources for my and other community members' information and education!

One important note: Flagstaff does not currently have a Drone as First Responder program. This week's meetings and community conversations are part of early conversations about whether and how that technology might be used locally.

Technology like this raises important questions about both public safety and public trust. I appreciate that these conversations are starting now and welcoming community insights and considerations as early as possible. My hope is that there will continue to be meaningful opportunities for community members to learn, ask questions, raise concerns, and help inform what comes next so that your voices are deeply involved and honored in any future decisions the City, Council, and other community partners make.

The primary is behind us, and the Road to November has begun.

Running a strong local campaign takes neighbors like you willing to invest in a shared vision for our community.

I’m deeply grateful and humbled to receive the endorsement of Her Bold Move, a national organization working to elect more women at every level of government and ensure women are represented wherever priorities are set and decisions are made.

When we connected, we discussed some of the challenges that uniquely and disproportionately affect women, including access to safe, stable, and affordable housing, the importance of maternal behavioral health, and meaningful support for women and families. It's my humble privilege to add my voice to the chorus of women, families, and historically marginalized peoples calling out for positive change in our communities, states, and nation in these, and many more, areas.

I’m honored to join the Her Bold Move network and stand alongside women across the country who are leading with compassion, courage, pragmatism, and boldness. I look forward to carrying that shared commitment forward as we work to create positive change for Flagstaff, with women, families, and all people at heart.

Thank you, Her Bold Move, for your confidence in me and for standing with me and this people-centered campaign on the road to November.

Flagstaff, thank you! Thank you to everyone who voted, volunteered, contributed, displayed a sign, shared a post, asked a thoughtful question, or offered a word of encouragement during the primary election. I’m honored to continue to the November 3 general election, and I’m ready to keep earning your trust and support.

Over the coming months, I’ll continue sharing my commitments to Flagstaff, listening to residents across our community, and building the people-powered campaign that got us here.

There is more work ahead, and there is room for each of you in it. We’ve come this far ... Let’s keep going, Flagstaff. Together.
