Issues Facing St. Pete
-
Storms are part of life in Florida, but being unprepared shouldn’t be.
I support:
• Stronger communication before, during, and after storms
• Accessible resources for seniors, renters, and vulnerable residents
• Infrastructure improvements that reflect climate realities
• Neighborhood‑level resilience planning
Preparedness protects lives, homes, and our community. -
Equity means acknowledging disparities and addressing them directly.
I support:
• Fair and equitable access to city services
• Removing barriers that disproportionately affect marginalized communities
• Policies that uplift historically disenfranchised residents
• Inclusive decision‑making that reflects the whole city and everyone who calls St. Pete home
Equity is how we build a city where everyone can thrive. -
St. Pete is rapidly becoming unaffordable for longtime residents.
I support:
• Housing stability for families and seniors
• Protections for renters
• Pathways to homeownership
• Economic conditions that allow residents to stay rooted here
A city is strongest when its people can afford to live in it. -
Growth is inevitable, displacement is absolutely not.
I support:
• Development that respects neighborhood character
• Infrastructure that keeps pace with growth
• Transparent planning processes
• Community input that actually shapes outcomes
Responsible development will strengthen our community, not erase it. -
Government should be easy to understand and leaders easy to access.
I commit to:
• Communicating clearly
• Supporting accessible public meetings and materials
• Being available to listen
• Supporting systems that make participation easier, not harder
Transparency builds trust. Accessibility builds community.
