Tina’s Priorities
Independent Leadership
Tina believes local leaders should answer to the people they serve, not political pressure from Tallahassee or special interests. She will speak up when local decision-making, public health, and common sense are under attack.
Responsible Budgeting
Public dollars are precious. Tina has helped oversee multimillion-dollar budgets and believes every budget should reflect community values, protect essential services, and deliver measurable results.
Smart Growth
Growth should be intentional, not reactive. Tina will work to protect our environment and water supply while planning for housing, transportation, and infrastructure in ways that keep our communities livable and affordable.
Investing in Communities
Strong communities do not happen by accident. Tina supports living-wage jobs, youth opportunities, public transit, parks and recreation, and policies that help families thrive.
