Welcome

Coastal erosion is a significant environmental challenge for the Westbank. This erosion threatens communities, infrastructure, and local industries like fishing and tourism. Efforts to combat this include coastal restoration projects, levee improvements, and marshland preservation, but continued investment and policy changes are needed to slow land loss and protect Westbank communities from flooding. I will continue to support these efforts and seek other methods of protection.

Economic development is a key issue, particularly in attracting new businesses and revitalizing local economies. There has been interest in bringing more small businesses, such as a brew pub, to the Westbank to create jobs, increase tourism, and provide more entertainment options. However, challenges include securing funding, zoning regulations, and ensuring these businesses receive community support.  "A stronger economy means more jobs, more opportunities, and a better future for all."

Crime remains a top concern for many Westbank residents. Property crime, drug related offenses, and violent crime can impact quality of life and economic stability. I will work with law enforcement and community leaders to build stronger trust between officers and residents. "Every resident deserves to feel safe in their home, their neighborhood, and business."
