My Murray - Your Murray - Our Murray
A Green Murray
Doing Our Part - Locally
Sustainability starts at city hall. I’ll support energy upgrades to public buildings and a shift to cleaner vehicles to make our city operations as efficient and forward-thinking as our residents.
Shade isn’t just nice - it’s necessary. I’ll lead efforts to preserve our neighborhood tree canopy, bringing cooler streets, cleaner air, and a healthier community. Let’s grow smart.
Growth is coming - let’s do it right. I’ll advocate for preserving open space while encouraging smart, sustainable development that respects our natural surroundings.
An Collaborative Murray
Active Involvement in Shaping Murray's Future
The Murray City Council is the body of our local government that votes Yay or Nay on a variety of issues - from funding the library to zoning request from developers and property owners.
Instead of waiting for those decisions to be presented to the council by various city departments, I will be engaged in those discussions from an early stage.
The 50,000+ residents of Murray deserve leadership on the City Council that engages early in these discussions instead of just waiting to vote on them. That's how you Build a Better Murray.

Parks, Arts, and Recreation for All Ages
Parks and public spaces are where communities come together. I will prioritize:
- Continued investment in parks, trails, and green spaces
- Expanded support for arts programs and local artists
- Recreation and cultural opportunities that serve youth, seniors, and everyone in between
- A new splash pad, dog park, bike and skate park. Murray has great parks, but some new amenities will be very welcome additions.
These aren’t extras - they’re important to our quality of life.

A Hub for Community Life
Our downtown has come a long way - but in many ways the work is just getting started. I support continued efforts to modernize and revitalize Murray's Block One and the old City Hall property through:
- Mixed-use development that combines housing, retail, dining, and public space
- Infrastructure improvements that make downtown walkable, bikable, and accessible
- Preserving historic character while embracing new opportunities for growth
A Smart Murray
Invest in Murray's Youngest Citizens
Quality public education is the cornerstone of a thriving community. I will collaborate with the Murray School District to advocate for:
- Support for underserved neighborhoods with pocket recreation & resource centers
- Expanded after-school and summer programs to support working families and close achievement gaps
- Community-wide support that supplement Murray School District efforts to help recruit and retain teachers
Strong schools build strong communities. Let’s invest in our kids and their future.
An Affordable Murray
Smart, Affordable, Attainable Family Housing
Murray people seem to really like Murray - but can't always afford to stay in, or return to, Murray.
To help make Murray a place our adult children are able to make their own home, I will engage early to work with our planning and zoning department to champion:
- Medium-density housing options that reflect the needs of today’s families
- Mixed-income neighborhoods that promote long-term stability and diversity
- Responsible zoning that supports affordable, sustainable, and livable development
