Questions & Answers

1. What experience related to city government would you bring to the City Council?

I have over 11 years experience working in local government. For more information, see the previous section on biographical details.

2. What concerns are of particular importance to the city and how would you address them?

Continued prudent management of the City's budget is paramount. We need to continue pension reform and carefully manage our staffing. We also need to look at 10 year revenue projections to ensure we know where we are headed.

Congestion around schools remains a concern. This can be alleviated by making additional improvements that allow more parents to feel confident about allowing their child to walk or ride a bike to school. Projects have been identified around both Blach and Eagan. They need to be prioritized and then completed in a timely fashion.

We need to maintain momentum downtown by completing the parking management study and making decisions about what needs to be done to ensure parking supports the types of businesses we want to see downtown.
