I’m not a politician. I’m a family man, a businessman, and a neighborhood leader who loves our city.

We elect a new city leader this year. Mayor Jon Costas, who has served  honorably and well for nearly sixteen years, announced he is not seeking re-election. And as the mayor often says, "Change is hard." But it's also exciting! And it is necessary for growth and renewal.

We can keep the best of what's working as we embrace new ideas. By opening up to new voices, supporting local businesses, strengthening our neighborhoods and non-profits, and growing sustainably, we can build a more open and connected city from the bottom-up.
