Why I'm running for Mayor


As I speak with people throughout the city
, many have asked why I want to run for Mayor. Why take on this task during these difficult times? To me, the answer is simple: true leaders are willing to face adversity head-on.

My commitment to this community dates back three generations. We Brocktonians will weather this storm together, as we have others in the past, and  we will come out of it a stronger, more cohesive city. Brockton

is still place where neighbors help one another; where children get a great education with opportunities to shine and where businesses choose to locate and prosper.  This race is not my race. It is our race. It is a race about what we want for the future of our city and our children. I am asking you to join to me and to believe that together we can bring about change in Brockton.
 
Plan the work. Work the plan.
I have developed a "Blueprint for Brockton" detailing five main areas of concern that I will act upon when taking office as mayor.

1.

Sustaining and improving fiscal solvency.
 
2. Stabilizing neighborhoods impacted by foreclosures and public safety issues.
 
3. Reinvigorating community spirit and engaging citizenry.
 
4. Strengthening economic development.
 
5. Ensuring children thrive.

Communication is the key.

We will focus on creating opportunities to build community spirit and community connections, with an emphasis on collaboration and accountability.  I will actively seek new members of city boards and commissions and solicit residents’ input on city programs and initiatives, introduce summer concerts for families and maintain direct communication with residents through regular news updates and utilization of the city’s website as a clearinghouse for volunteer opportunities.
