Greetings From Canton City Council Ward 2
Canton Notes

Hello Canton! First and foremost, it is a great honor to represent the fine residents and businesses of this great city. Born and raised in Canton, I have witnessed its progress and growth and want to make sure we keep moving in the right direction. Safety and community are my priorities. Making sure existing businesses thrive and new ones looking to come to our city have a smooth and clear path to open and be successful are important goals.
Quality residential growth is also important. Homeownership is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) investments that individuals will make in their lifetime. Whether rehabbing an existing home or building a new one, I want the city staff to continue to be helpful to Canton residents, all while working with the council to streamline the building and development process to be quicker and more efficient. With incredible businesses, restaurants, and retail establishments, our city will continue to attract individuals who want to call Canton home. Residents who live and work in Canton and are invested in our community make it a safer and better place for all of us to live.
Each day, I have the pleasure of looking out my office window to watch the happenings of historic downtown Canton. Retired couples going to lunch or early dinner at one of our many restaurants, young families getting coffee or ice cream, and folks of all ages shopping and enjoying the arts in the "Coolest Small Town in America."
As for my role within the city, I want to maintain high standards of public safety. To do that, we need quality residential growth and strong economic commercial districts. People who are invested in their community will take care of it with a sense of pride. Expanding our parks and increasing our options for recycling, while keeping our budget and expenditures at levels that will help lower our millage rate and save property owners money on their taxes are also priorities of mine.
My first few months in office have opened my eyes, in a good way, to all that goes into running a city this size. The mayor, council, and staff have helped me transition into my new role. They've answered my questions and made me feel welcome. Great things are yet to come, and I look forward to the future of our wonderful city.
