Restore Trust in City Hall

🔄 Restore Trust in City Hall

Background:

• Trust collapse: Resident trust in City Hall dropped from 62% (2017) to 41% (2024).
• Disconnect: Council and Administration often pursue ideological agendas over residents’ needs.
• Broken contract: Resident input frequently ignored in decision-making.
• Power imbalance: Too much authority lies with Administration, not elected representatives.

Commitments:

• Restore trust by listening to residents and reflecting their will in decisions.
• Reinforce servant leadership: remind Council and Administration their role is to serve, not dictate.
• Put residents back in charge through their elected representatives.
• Hold City Administration accountable and push for leadership changes if needed.
