Assist businesses and organizations that draw people in to the community, helping support the tax base that funds the community. Reevaluate how current guidelines and permits actually restrict and hamper businesses from marketing and promotion instead of helping.

Provide incentives to attract new businesses to fill vacant sites such as the old Price Chopper, HyVee, Burger King and Thai 2000 buildings.

First catch up on deferred expenses. Then fund necessary programs to ensure our city’s children and elderly don’t go hungry. Then develop a plan to entice new business (and to help expand existing business) to bring new jobs and industry to our town.

Devising incentives to attract new business tenants for the vacant office and retail space in eastern parts of the city. Revitalization.

Affordable housing and infrastructure should be a priority. The long range plans needs to be sustainable so that there will be citizen support.

I believe Shawnee should prioritize with keeping up the roads, potholes, curbs, and any other safety issues that involve all of the citizens in the community.
