Educated Leadership
As your next mayor, I pledge to attend all mandatory Georgia Municipal Association trainings, and as many optional ones as I can squeeze into my schedule. One of the things…
Citizens deserve to be able to hear the discussion and decision-making that happens during meetings. They should be able to go back to see the discussion and conversations that lead to the votes that occur in session. As your mayor, I will work to improve the broadcast and recording capabilities of the city, so that everyone can see, hear, and understand the process even if they can't attend the meetings in person.
Using property already owned by the city, I'll work to create food-producing green spaces that would provide our citizens with a free source of fresh fruits and vegetables, and encourage the city to switch out purely decorative plants for ones that could provide nourishment as needed. Through grant funding, this could be a budget neutral way to enhance the quality of life for many of our citizens.
In addition, I want to explore ways to reduce the tax burden we all live with.
Elected officials in the State of Georgia are required by law to attend trainings and seminars in order to better represent the needs of their constituents. As your mayor, I will proudly represent our city, and bring what I learn back to you, the citizens.
Because Port Wentworth’s municipal elections are non-partisan, I decided to use an organization called Good Party to help organize my campaign.
Good Party’s helps independent candidates access the same level of electoral participation as major party candidates.
Through their online training, I have learned how to run an ethical, positive, issues-focused campaign. In addition, I signed their pledge to not accept donations from corporations or either major political party.
