What is the vision for our town?

My vision for Decatur is a thriving, inclusive community where every resident feels valued, heard, and empowered. I aim to create a city that prioritizes safety, accountability, and meaningful investments in infrastructure and public spaces. This includes cleaner streets, well-maintained city property, and accessible recreation areas for our youth. At the core of our vision is fostering collaboration between citizens and city leadership, ensuring local voices shape the decisions that impact us all. By utilizing the talents within our town and committing to transparency, we can build a brighter, stronger Decatur that reflects the pride and dedication of its people.

What are the key issues you plan to address?

As your mayor, I plan to focus on the issues that matter most to the people of Decatur. My priorities include repairing and maintaining our city’s infrastructure to ensure long-term stability, improving public safety so every resident feels secure, and creating accessible recreation areas for our youth to foster growth and community engagement. I am committed to addressing the litter problem to keep our city clean and beautiful, enhancing communication with citizens to encourage transparency and trust, and ensuring local talents are utilized for city projects rather than relying on expensive outside consultants. Together, we can build a stronger, cleaner, and safer Decatur.

How will you engage with the community?

I will engage with the community through consistent and meaningful communication channels designed to foster collaboration and transparency. Regular town hall meetings will provide a platform for open discussion, allowing residents to voice concerns and share ideas directly with city leadership. Community surveys will be conducted to gather input on important issues, ensuring that decisions reflect the needs and priorities of the people. Open forums will serve as an opportunity for constructive dialogue, encouraging active participation in shaping the future of Decatur. Your voice matters, and together, we can create a city driven by collaboration, accountability, and shared vision.

What is your plan for community development?

My plan for community development centers on fostering a strong, sustainable economy that delivers measurable returns on investment for our town. By supporting small businesses with grants, training programs, and resources, we can empower local entrepreneurs to thrive and create jobs for our residents. Attracting new investments is equally vital, ensuring our city grows in ways that align with community needs while boosting economic activity. With improved infrastructure and accessible recreation areas, we’ll also enhance the attractiveness of Decatur, encouraging businesses and families to plant roots here. Every dollar spent will be strategically invested in initiatives that improve quality of life, drive local growth, and generate long-term economic benefits for everyone.
