As a Council member I continue to encourage citizens to be involved in their community and city government. As a city we need afforadable, more retail businesses, affordable utilities, a Boys and Girl's Club and upgrrading the streets and sidewalks in the community where needed
As an elected offcial I have always believed in equal representation for all. I continue to go out and listen to citizen's concerns, regardless of how big or small the issues. I put forth every effort to help to the best of my ability. I thank God for giving me a chance to help make a difference in the City of Covington
