District 6 Data
Important data highlighting District 6.
I am a strong believer in data. To know what works for our community, make data-driven decisions, measure for long-term results, and continually improve our strategies, collecting data is essential. Therefore, my team is continually pulling numbers such as vehicle ownership, demographics, homeownership, and much more.

Strategy Sessions: In the beginning of my term in office, I held 3 Strategy Sessions. We reviewed the data that my team collected. Additionally, we polled those who came, and had community discussions around the numbers we saw.
Below is the data we’ve collected along with the PowerPoint of the Strategy Sessions.
