Make the Village Work for People Again

Baltimore is home to a diverse population, but residents do have a common hope for their village: to remain a small, pleasant village while still encouraging new business. As a long-term resident, I share these values.

In order to merge these two ideals together, our local leaders need to stop taking an "automatic no" response to residents' and business owners' requests, and start asking, "What can we do to get to yes?" As a Village Council member, I would work toward making the council more resident and business friendly, working WITH residents and businesses, not AGAINST them.
