Lexington Deserves more INVESTMENT.

The primary job of our city government is to deliver essential services, to protect the safety of its residents, provide quality of life, and economic stability — efficiently and accountably. Our residents pay into state and federal systems every single day.  We deserve our fair share returned — for infrastructure, public safety, housing, small businesses, and neighborhoods. Lexington deserves leadership that works hard and invests in its people, its future and its assets. 

As mayor I will…

  • Create a balanced budget that reflects the priorities of the people

  • Aggressively pursue state and federal grants

  • Ensure Lexington competes — and wins — major funding opportunities

  • Track and publicly report what we apply for and what we receive
