Top issues during term (5)(Budget)
NEORSD Community Cost-Share Funding for Street Sweeper
Roughly $6 million a year for the next three years is estimated to begin catching up on road maintenance.
Dedicated safe-streets budget line item
Supported by federal SS4A funding; the mayor also found $25,000 in the budget for immediate improvements citywide.
Economic development assistance applicant
$1.5 million total city commitment — a $750,000 grant plus a $750,000 loan repaid over 30 years at 2% interest.
school budget cuts
Local taxpayers and families might see diminished educational value and fewer resources for the money already going toward the district.
pool financing
Local taxpayers could end up footing the bill or seeing municipal services cut elsewhere to cover the pool's funding gap.
