What are two key issues in your city?
Keeping our neighborhoods clean and safe is my number one priority. A clean and safe environment in our neighborhoods affects our families and it has a direct effect on our property values.
The second issue is providing the same quality of services our residents have come to expect within a more limited budget.
How will you address these issues?
We must be aggressive in attacking the problems that threaten our neighborhoods, maintain our standards for public safety (police and fire) and work with our business owners to find more long-term solutions for our business districts.
Dearborn should continue investing in the city’s infrastructure, our public parks and public facilities, while working hard to attract new business to the districts, which will increase our tax base.
