Original campaign statement

100-Day Promise

In my first 100 days, I will push to:

• Launch a public Yuma First audit of city spending, contracts, consultants, departments, delayed projects, and major public-private partnerships. This will identify what works and what doesn’t.

• Create a public project dashboard so residents can track project costs, timelines, contractors, delays, funding sources, and public benefits.

• Hold a small business and jobs roundtable to identify barriers, permit delays, workforce gaps, and local job opportunities.

• Require public benefit reviews before major projects receive city support.

• Start a grant and outside funding inventory so Yuma competes for state, federal, nonprofit, and private dollars instead of putting every burden on local taxpayers.

12- Month Promise

In my first year, I will push for:

• A Quality of Life and Economic Opportunity Plan connecting parks, youth jobs, small business, downtown, tourism, workforce training, public safety, river access, and transparency.

• A Youth Jobs and Workforce Pipeline with internships, apprenticeships, trade exposure, summer jobs, and career pathways. Coordinated with the chamber of commerce, AZ@Work, small businesses of Yuma, and city employees.

• A Small Business Reform Package with clearer permits, faster responses, fewer delays, vendor support, and a small business navigator.

• A Colorado River and Natural Assets Report to responsibly use Yuma’s river, land, weather, history, and outdoor spaces for tourism and local business growth.

• A Public Benefit Scorecard showing whether city projects actually delivered jobs, wages, public value, and results.

My Promise to Yuma

I will fight for real transparency, responsible growth, stronger jobs, small business support, better parks, youth opportunity, public safety through stronger neighborhoods, heat and shade planning, downtown activation, responsible river access, tourism, local contracts, and a city government that is easier to understand. Yuma’s future should be built in public, not behind closed doors.

Every decision comes back to this; Does it protect residents? Does it bring prosperity? Does it benefit the people of Yuma?

That is the Yuma First Plan.
