YOU DESERVE: Regular Communication From Your Reps

• WE WILL:   Hold community and town hall meetings so we can hear what’s on YOUR mind and keep you updated and informed about what’s happening downtown.

YOU DESERVE: Open, Ethical, Transparent Government

• WE WILL:   Work every day to ensure transparency remains a cornerstone of the City’s path forward.

  • There is no other acceptable way to conduct the people's business.

YOU DESERVE: Fair Property Taxes

• WE WILL:   Fight to keep taxes as low as possible by putting our financial backgrounds to work for you.

  • The 2022 property revaluation must be postponed by one year. Tax rates cannot be locked in for five years based on COVID inflated prices.

  • Our tax dollars need to be spent wisely, accounted for, and must have responsible oversight. We want Stamford's growth to continue, allowing fairer and more reflective tax rates to be set. We work hard for the dollars we pay in city taxes, and knowing it is being spent responsibly is paramount.

YOU DESERVE: Quality & Safe Public Schools

• WE WILL:   Fight for the highest quality & safest schools for our children.

  • The mold crisis must be resolved quickly and effectively, and school infrastructure issues need fiscally responsible plans to make sure this never happens again. Our children and educators absolutely deserve the safest and most conducive to learning environment possible.

  • The quality and reputation of our schools greatly impacts the value of our homes, which in many cases is a family's most valuable asset. If we don’t fix this issue sustainably, the impact will be profound.

  • We will fight to ensure that our kids and faculty have the BEST we can provide. Plain and simple.

YOU DESERVE: Exceptional Public Safety

• WE WILL:   Ensure that public safety is never sacrificed as we all need to be safe and secure.

  • The fastest emergency response time is what we expect. We never want any of us to worry about how long it takes help to arrive, and will remain actively engaged to that end. Eric’s roles as Vice Chair of the Public Safety & Health Committee and on the Board of Directors of Stamford EMS will continue to serve us well.

  • With the recent increase in car break-ins, we want a more prominent police presence in District 13.

  • Our police, fire, and emergency professionals put their lives on the line for us each and every day. We will fight to ensure the every available tool is at their disposal to protect the community and themselves.

YOU DESERVE: Faster Response Time From Public Utilities

• WE WILL:   Stand up to Eversource, Optimum/Altice, & Frontier demanding better service response.

  • Service interruptions must be restored much faster than we are unfortunately used to.

  • Eversource must keep up with tree trimming to reduce storm related outages.

  • Internet access is not a luxury, it is a vital necessity. Optimum/Altice and Frontier need to act like public utilities and respond as if life itself is on the line…. because all to often it is.

YOU DESERVE: Solidly Maintained Roads & Bridges

• WE WILL:   Fight for increased frequency of road & bridge maintenance and increase quality standards.

  • Our roads and bridges must be more frequently inspected and maintained and, when rebuilt, done so with proper focus on longevity. Short term repairs cannot be the norm. I will ensure that City departments involved know full well what District 13’s concerns are, and that action is taken.
