Four years ago I asked for your help to change the
direction of our city. You gave it and I went to work.
Public safety is my top priority. The result
has been added police officers to fight the Meth crisis and creation of a
new fire department engine company, without increasing taxes.
Stopping development on undersized lots in
SESNA, securing zoning protection in NEN, challenging traffic patterns in
SCAN, helping the SEMCA neighborhood secure a sound barrier along I-5.
Reducing unemployment by attracting new
businesses with family wage jobs and sound development plans.
Bringing new life to downtown with a
“toolbox” full of incentives to create housing and rehabilitate
historic structures.
Cleaning up streams, protecting trees, adding
new parks and enhancing the livability of our entire community.
TO
KEEP SALEM WORKING WE MUST:
Continue making public safety a priority,
expand the Neighborhood Watch Program and bring community police and
enforcement efforts closer to the citizens.
Rewrite our city codes to protect our
neighborhoods and insure that increased density and infill is beneficial to
everyone.
Challenge any attempt to reroute traffic from
major arterials into our neighborhoods.
Build on our clean streams program with a
public-private partnership to reestablish salmon runs in Mill and Pringle
Creeks.
Continue our practice of finding solutions
without raising taxes.
Keep working together to guarantee that all
voices are heard and respected.
Re-Elect Jim Randall
Let’s
Keep Salem Working
