Candidate for
Council Member; City of Norwood; Ward 5

This information is provided by the candidate

  • Responsible Development

Norwood, because of its location, has become one of the most desirable settings for development in the tri-state area. The Smith/Williams intersection, Montgomery Road and Carthage Avenue site (commonly know as the "Globe" site), and the corner of Montgomery Road and Sherman Avenue site are but three of the developments currently on the table. As your council representative, I will endeavor to evaluate each development on an individual basis to ensure that every project improves the lives of residents and maximizes the economic benefits to Norwood.
  • Balanced Budget

As a city we must end the mismanagement of city funds and overspending. As a council member, I will strive to achieve not only a balanced budget, but a budget that truly sets aside funds for emergencies.

  • Street Repair--Priority Basis

In order to remain a viable community, we must invest in our streets and infrastructure. As your council member, I pledge to support quality street repair on a priority basis.

  • Open up City Hall to the Citizens

A healthy government is one in which citizens are free and encouraged to participate in the democratic process. I look forward to working with other members of council to establish guidelines for increased citizen participation.
