Top issues during term (5)
city council vacancy
Filling the seat is mostly an administrative process, so don’t expect a big hit to your wallet.
zoning approval - Riverside Park wedding venue
Taxpayers aren’t directly on the hook, but the city may see venue fees while nearby residents could bear noise and traffic costs—and the park’s free public use gets a little less free.
highway expansion opposition
Your tax dollars could go toward a bigger highway instead of local streets, or the city could avoid those costs if it wins.
city taxes research
There’s no dollar figure attached yet, but the research could lead to property tax savings if La Crosse officials adopt some of the ideas.
First Amendment challenge to proposed ordinance
Taxpayers could get stuck with legal bills and staff time if this turns into a courtroom fight.
