1. What is the most important issue in Council District 12 you would address if elected?

Public Safety- "Those who are paid to protect us, must also respect us". There is a big communication gap between the police and the community. Then we need to address the Gang problem, they are terrorizing and vandalizing the community.

Affordable homes-We must first define affordable, having 3 families residing inside one home, is not my definition of affordable. In various areas of district 12, homes are going for $400,000 while the average income is $60,000. We need homes to be affordable.
