Top issues during term (4)(General)
$15 Million CDBG-DR Grant for Indian Hills Pump Station
Up to $15 million in grant funds with no local match toward a $10-million-plus sewer project.
Peer support workforce and stigma
$6.5 million in state capital funds secured; $865,000 of opioid-adjacent funds used for the site purchase, with no opioid settlement dollars spent on construction.
infrastructure failure
Taxpayers will likely foot the bill for emergency repairs and stabilization to keep roads from sliding away completely.
passenger rail restoration
While the exact price tag isn't set yet, building and running a new rail line will definitely require significant local and state investments.
