My Platform

 

  1. See to completion the many projects that I have started in my first term. The $6.5 million project at the Waste Water Plant. The completion of the Kingdom Road Pump Station and Sewer line Project; Drainage Projects throughout the Town and over $20 million dollars of improvements at the Water Treatment Plant. All of these projects will be completed with a combination of grants, reserves, and zero per cent bonding at no additional cost to the tax paying community.

  2. Continue to work with the Board to reduce taxes without cutting services and public safety.

  3. Continue to restore downtown. With the Micro Enterprise Grant that I facilitated, 6 new businesses will be starting in Seneca Falls. Each new business will be getting anywhere from $23,000 to $35,000 in free money. Once this session is completed, we will be applying for another grant to encourage even more growth.

  4. Develop a plan for the Van Cleef Lake and the Seneca/Cayuga Canal revitalization. The planning was made possible with another grant that I facilitated. A Community committee will have the opportunity, with the assistance of the entire community, to bring to reality our vision for this area, including Fall Street.

  5. Continue to foster relationships with the federally recognized leaders of the Cayuga Nation.

  6. Build a new, indoor sports facility for our young people and their families. Soccer, basketball, pickle ball and the many other activities it could be used for including regional tournaments.

  7. Create all types of new housing including condos, affordable housing, and upscale apartments. Many of the older members of our community would like the opportunity to move into a single level condo and not worry about mowing grass or shoveling snow. Many hardworking families need an affordable place to live which can become a reality with just having the opportunity to own their house and not pay rent for a run-down facility or house.
