Fiscal SustainabilityDublin has a projected budget deficit on the horizon. My work on the Fiscal Sustainability Task Force gave me a deep understanding of the finances of our city before I was even on Council. I know that we need to do the hard work now to prevent this deficit, while still providing the services and amenities that our community members deserve and have become accustomed to. I am committed to building our maintenance reserves so that the beautiful facilities we have can be maintained far into the future. I only vote to approve those projects for which adequate ongoing funds are clearly identified. My top priority is to make data-driven decisions that are fiscally responsible, both short term and long term. In the time I have been on Council, even during the uncertainty of the pandemic, we have continued to push the looming deficit outward by identifying cost savings and revenue enhancements.
