EXPECT MORE. DO BETTER.

A city that works

Streets and utilities. Public safety. Parks and libraries. Tax-base development. Housing. These core services are critical. When city government doesn’t do these well, no one else does. Let’s expect more. Let’s expect city services that work—and work well.

PUBLIC SAFETY

Drugs. Panhandling. Graffiti. Encampments. Several Downtown buildings and I-35 twice closed by major encampment fires. All contribute to a feeling of being unsafe in our downtown and in too many neighborhoods. As a community, we can—and must—do better.

LEADERSHIP MATTERS

Culture and attitude matter. We need City Hall to partner with residents, neighborhoods and businesses. We need an attitude of, “Yes, we can do that!” And we need a mayor who can bring people together to find solutions. I can do that. Because I have done that.

In a mall storefront shaped by unplanned visits and unhurried conversations, Amy Louhela has built something increasingly uncommon in modern retail: a business grounded in patience, trust and human connection. Finding beauty, she insists, remains worth the time.
