VOTE

FOR WARD 2 CITY COUNCILLOR

PRIORITIES

I will focus on:

Designing safer streets for all: those who walk, bike, wheel, use mobility devices, take the bus, and drive.
Residents feeling safer from crime in our downtown, neighbourhoods and businesses.
Local policing meeting municipal needs and improving community safety through appropriate and evidence-based approaches, resources, and training.
Increasing provincial and federal support to address the complex social challenges affecting Ward 2.

I will champion more affordable options in our city by supporting:

Investments in Codiac Transpo to get people where they need to go, faster.
Local organizations that are leaders in developing affordable housing.
Strategies that better enable housing cooperatives.
Cross-government collaboration and municipal planning policies to meet the housing needs of all our residents.
Urban densification that more sustainably finances city infrastructure, funds upgrades that attract private investment, and sustains a lower tax rate.

One of Moncton's great strengths is how we connect, with each other and with place. As a City Councillor I will connect with:

Constituents: helping residents bring their needs to City Council and staff, and communicating what Council is working on with residents.
City staff: searching for opportunities to support departments to address community needs.
Other levels of government: bringing support to Moncton where and when it's needed, like affordable housing, healthcare, and mental health and addictions support.
NGOs: championing the essential work they do on-the-ground to reduce harm in our community.
Small businesses: advocating for meaningful change that addresses property crime and supports the growth of vibrant and prosperous business districts.
Nature: working with nature whenever possible, while greening our city and improving urban environmental quality.
