The single biggest issue in town is ______, and I plan to do this about it:

The single most pressing issue facing Stamford is repairing our infrastructure and preparing it for Stamford to be a 21st century city. We need well-paved roads that will accommodate cars and bicycles and pedestrians; we need sidewalks to make all parts of the city walkable; we need school buildings that are healthy and safe for students and teachers.

Critical differences between me and my opponents:

I have lived in the 20th District for 36 years and I know its people and the issues that concern them. I have been consistently responsive to constituent calls and emails and have a record of advocacy on their behalf.

Accomplishments:

I bring experience and a record of accomplishments on behalf of all my constituents: roads paved, bus shelters erected, extended recycling and waste collection service, and traffic signage and monitoring.

Other issues:

The 20th District is home to many parks. Will focus on their maintenance and find ways to make each of them more activity and family-friendly.

What else would you like voters to know about you?

I consider myself a public servant whose job is to be a voice for everyone in the district and to make the city services responsive to their issues and problems.
