Infrastructure: Streets, Sewers, Drainage

Improving connectivity and accessibility on good, safe, smooth roads, trails and sidewalks throughout our city is critical.

I will leverage local dollars with matching state and federal grants to enhance our water infrastructure and improve our streets. Water delivery will be safe, reliable and affordable. Flooding in lower-lying neighborhoods will continue to diminish, without a raise in taxes. I will also ensure our city’s projects are distributed efficiently and equitably in all areas. 

Pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular safety along Pendleton Pike from I-465 to Oaklandon Road will be dramatically improved. Trash collection will be professional. Litter reduction efforts will help keep our public and private properties clean and safe. I will strive to ensure “Lawrence Is Beautiful” is more than just a slogan – it’s a fact of life here.
