Campaign Points:

Maintaining safe streets for our children and seniors.

Feeling safe within our Village is a basic need for all residents. This includes adequate emergency support from first responders, maintaining the village during inclement weather, as well as more opportunities for interaction between law enforcement and village residents. There is strength in numbers, and the adage it takes a village is just as relevant now as it ever was.

Making smart investments with our tax dollars.

While attracting quality businesses to our community is vital, we must fairly balance the needs of our residents and provide investments in infrastructure, mitigate impacts to our quality of life and protect the village feel. Decisions should be made with transparency and increased public input.

Preserving the character and charm of the Village.

The quaint look and feel of Shorewood is what drew many residents to the Village. It is important to preserve the charm of the village while making sure we are attracting and retaining residents and businesses.
