It’s election time!
I am running for Syracuse City Council because I love and care about our city. My husband and I have lived in Syracuse for 22 years and raised five children here. I want to help keep Syracuse a great place to raise a family. I have the experience in community service to be an effective City Council Member. For many years, and under three different mayors, I was the Youth City Council Advisor for the City of Syracuse. Professionally, I’m a registered nurse who provides medical support for individuals with intellectual disabilities that live in shared homes in the community.
I’m running because I want to make a good city better. Our city is good, but there’s so much more that it can be.
I want to ensure that as we continue to grow, we don’t sell ourselves out. We can grow, but we need to do it right. Let’s build a city that we can all be proud to call home focused on balanced development to ensure that it is managed in a way that preserves our environment, protects our natural resources, and enhances our quality of life.
I’m not running, because I want to be an elected official, I’m running because I want to help preserve the community. We have a wonderful community bursting with potential, however many of our residents are frustrated. I will advocate for intentional city planning that promotes green spaces, trails, safe walking paths, with community spaces such as multi-sports fields and an amphitheater. I want Syracuse to be a beautiful place to live. Not a congested cement world of three story rental apartments.
We need to find ways to partner with quality developers to increase the availability of attractive housing that will raise Syracuse up, support our local businesses, and focus on reasonable ways to keep property taxes down.
I care a lot about Syracuse and its future, and I’m willing to put in the time and effort to learn about the issues and make decisions that will bring value to Syracuse. I would ask for your vote to help us to do this together.
Thank you for voting!
