It’s OFFICIAL

Tuesday marked a significant milestone in our campaign – official FILING to become your next Mayor of Duluth! I set a goal to be the first candidate to file for any office this election season, and as someone who does what they say they are going to (with a sprint up the steps of City Hall) – I did! To be honest, completing the paperwork to make this official was a little emotional. Duluth, I am so excited to get to work for you!

Donuts and Campaign Values

This week we finished up our last of six Coffee & Conversations with another great turnout at Yellow Bike Coffee! These chats have been among my absolute favorite part of the campaign. At each event we have had people from different walks of life and political perspectives meet each other, share their concerns, and offer ideas. Did they walk away suddenly agreeing on everything? Nope. But they did speak to each other, listen to each other, and reflect on shared values.

Let’s Stop Labeling

I announced almost four months ago that I was running to be YOUR next Mayor of Duluth – and this week made a little news when I shared that I will not be seeking political party endorsements. The Office of the Mayor is non-partisan, and I’m working hard for the endorsement of everyday Duluthians.

Last week for Tax Day we went over facts about City of Duluth taxes and revenue. Last weekend, most of us received our proposed property values for 2024. Mine were a bit eye-popping at 15%, and based on what you all have told me, mine were on the low side.

Earlier this week was Tax Day, Tuesday, April 18. Did you know roughly 33% of Americans wait until that day to file? Forever a teacher at heart, on Tuesday I shared these random facts related to City of Duluth budget and taxes for folks to ponder while filing.

Streets. Utilities. Public Safety.

We’re all ready to start enjoying warm temperatures right?? But these nice temps are also bringing headaches as we deal with rapid snowmelt and our associated aging infrastructure issues. We know about snow removal and potholes. The news this week was flooded basements from overloaded storm sewers. I heard about these concerns again, and more, at our most recent Coffee & Conversation.

The State of Our City

I want to start this letter expressing my immeasurable gratitude. Last night was nothing short of incredible. So grateful to the over 100 of you who came out last night at the Clyde to hear my assessment and vision for Duluth in my State of the City Response speech.

Let’s chat State of Duluth!

I’m hoping you survived another pair of classic mid-March Duluth back to back snowstorms! They left us all talking about effective and efficient core city services. Hopefully, you caught the real-time video I did last weekend on social media! Duluth deserves consistent communication to all residents.
