Improvements

“My goals include continuing to use my business experience to help residents, businesses and developers obtain the Monroe City services and support they need to expand or start businesses, and to build and improve their homes. My goals also include continuing to improve sewer, drainage and flood control, water quality and capacity, lighting, and a safer community.  And I will continue to support and vote for crime prevention and law and order.

While I voice the needs and concerns of the people I represent in District 2, I understand the reason and need to support goals and projects that benefit the entire city.”
