1. How should the City of Lancaster maintain a balance between its unique environment and its need for development?
Development needs planning that has been designed with direction as to where the city's priorities are. Currently there has been no direction, and development happens where and whenever the owner (or owner's) for a specific property decides to sell it. The City's environment has been controlled by greedy individuals who are after profit. When the city returns to it's priorities, we will have balance.2. How can the City of Lancaster best secure an acceptable standard of public safety?
By enforcing a zero tolerance for crime and traffic violations. By getting our citizens involved enough to care about their neighborhoods and voting to insure that the elected officials are supported with their concern. Only when everyone is involved and willing to stand up to those that would criminally pollute our city can we truly have an acceptable standard of public safety.3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a city election in April of the even-numbered years? Do you favor continuing the practice?
Let's put the election where it belongs. April elections cost additional money, favor encumbents because of low voter interest.
