Housing is at a premium and in order to retain a diverse socioeconomic population, including seniors who want to age in a place they love, we need to explore opportunities for smart growth and development. On the council, I co-filed legislation to accept the city’s first Affordable Housing Trust. With this trust, along with the city’s Housing Production Plan, Melrose is poised to start meeting the challenges of the lack of affordable and accessible housing for all. Learn more
I will continue to advocate for the city to make investments in sidewalks, roadways, parks, municipal buildings and our schools, which improve the quality of life for all of our residents. Learn more

I will continue to advocate for the city to make investments in sidewalks, roadways, parks, municipal buildings and our schools, which improve the quality of life for all of our residents. Learn more
