Listening and Serving

I look forward to continuing to serve the community of Edina

I will continue to:

• Listen carefully to concerns and ideas
• Respond to questions and requests
• Research and thoroughly analyze proposed projects
• Monitor City spending and sustain the City’s strong fiscal health

The Importance of Listening With an Open Mind

I believe it is crucial for Council members to be willing to listen to all sides of issues and consider all input. I caution against having representatives who think they know the answers to tough questions before considering different viewpoints.

The residents of Edina are best served by Council members who set aside personal biases and listen with open minds to voices from all parts of the community – and only then make decisions they believe are in the best interest of the City as a whole.
