City Issues

Fiscal Responsibility

Living within our means as the demand and cost of services increases while available revenue decreases is a growing challenge for our community.

Public Safety

Public safety is a paramount duty of government. We must provide our first responders with the staffing and equipment they need to keep our City safe.

Homelessness

Unhoused individuals are dying on our streets. Vancouver is a recognized leader in the effort to eradicate homelessness. I will continue to support cost-effective strategies to eliminate unsheltered homelessness in our City.

Transportation

Everyone in our City should be able to get where they want, when they want, safely and cost-effectively. I will continue to support transportation strategies that include effective maintenance, safety improvements, multi modal corridors, and access to transit.

Housing

Affordability of housing is a crisis. The dream of ownership is increasingly out of reach for our children and grandchildren. I will continue to support policies that create more housing options, greater affordability, and increased housing supply.

Economic Opportunity

We need more living wage jobs in our community. I will continue to support policies to assist small business as they establish and grow as well as strategies to attract and retain large employers to the City.
