What’s the most important issue facing the city?

The budget.

What do you think of the city’s joint-use agreement with the

schools for use of playing fields?

It is fine if it is enforced correctly.

What would be the most effective way to improve the Westside?

Keep up code enforcement, move Soup Kitchen out of residential

area, make job center self-supporting, give incentives to businesses

to locate there.

Are city leaders doing a good job handling the budget and

pressures on it from the state?

I don’t think so. We should examine each part of the budget and

make across-the-board cuts initiated by department heads trimming

their own areas.
