The Issues
Jill Gaebler on the Issues
I believe our city needs a council with thoughtful leadership and a collaborative spirit. I believe that we need a strong economy, with a fiscally sustainable city government, achieved by supporting local business. To support growth we need a safe and sustainable infrastructure—to include roads, public transportation, stormwater, and fabulous parks, trails, and open spaces.
I will focus job growth on supporting local businesses that have committed their livelihoods to our city investing in our community. I will ask each of these businesses what they need from city government to add the next job to their workforce, helping these businesses to grow and thrive. Reducing local regulations and becoming a more pro-business city is paramount to our success as a world-class community.
