Common Council

Current City of Ithaca Common Council, 5th Ward Alderperson

I am running for the 2nd Ward Common Council for 2024.
Below are my guiding principles.
More to come soon.

I am running because I want Ithaca to be a city where residents are able to live long term, young people are meaningfully engaged and heard, city workers are supported for their commitment to a vibrant and well-functioning Ithaca.  Each time I examine an issue I ask myself:

 

“Who does this benefit?”

“Are all voices represented?”

“Are the most vulnerable, minoritized, underrepresented at the forefront?”

“Does this make life better for city residents and city workers?”

“What is my unconscious bias?”
