Positions
Airport
I support a long-term commitment to the airport. However I don’t think Boulder has gotten a good enough deal nor completed the necessary due diligence to agree to running the airport in perpetuity. Therefore I do not support accepting FAA funding and the accompanying 2022 grant covenants at this time.
Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs)
I believe we should stop the use of ALPRs, massively networked AI-enabled surveillance cameras, until and unless we generally have consent from the public.
Downtown Development Authority (DDA)
I support making it a priority to revitalize downtown and our local economy in a way that is symbiotic with the city budget. However I do not believe we are clear enough on the underlying policy issues nor have sufficient buy-in from the community to warrant a DDA at this time.
Minimum Wage
I have supported and continue to support minimum wage increases my council cohort has approved. I do not support changes to the top credit that could reduce pay to minimum wage earners.
