Ted believes that we can honor our deep-rooted past while also building a vibrant city the meets the needs of current and future citizens.
Issue: Expanding Clayton's Urban Limit Line
As a land-locked city, Clayton has limited space to grow. Ted values the small-town feel of Clayton with its rural charm. Yet he feels there still remain opportunities to develop if done appropriately.

Ted is not in favor of additional taxes for Clayton at this time. Cities should not tax residents for the sake of taxing.
