My “Five Priority Pillars” approach ensures that public funds are protected, property taxes are collected effectively, homeownership and foreclosure prevention programs are implemented, community partnerships are formed, and state laws are followed.

PEOPLE & PUBLIC SERVICE

Dedicated to serving the public with integrity and professionalism, while promoting transparency and accountability in financial dealings.

  • Ensure equitable treatment for all residents, irrespective of their background or situation.

  • Maintain respect for all residents with all forms of communication.

  • Guarantee office accessibility for all residents by using available technology to provide services and answers to frequently asked questions.

PROPERTY & INVESTMENTS

Safeguard public funds and ensure effective tax collection.

  • Optimize tax collection processes to safeguard public funds and support essential services.

  • Ensure compliance with all applicable State laws and regulations when safeguarding the public’s funds and managing County’s investments and finances.

  • Provide transparency with public disclosures and refine tax collection processes.

PROGRAMS

Advance equity initiatives to support community members, prevent foreclosures, and encourage homeownership.

  • Home for Generations: This initiative assists residents in securing ownership of homes passed down through generations. By aiding with legal and administrative tasks, it ensures families can keep their ancestral homes, thus promoting stability and continuity within the community.

  • Bridge Loans for Affordability: The Delinquent Property Tax Loan Fund is designed for low-income homeowners who are ineligible for other financial aid. This proactive measure helps prevent foreclosures by providing bridge funding to cover property tax delinquencies, supporting homeownership and financial stability.

  • Create new programs to prevent foreclosures and promote home ownership.

  • Partner with other government agencies to enhance service delivery, exchange information, and boost efficiency.

  • Engage local businesses to help identify and pursue community investment opportunities.

PUBLIC POLICY

Ensure compliance with state regulations to maintain public trust and ensure sound financial practices:

  • Stay abreast of regular updates or changes in state laws and regulations pertaining to financial matters.

  • Conduct routine compliance checks to audit operations and confirm adherence to all applicable laws and regulations.

  • Offer training for staff on compliance and the specific laws and regulations impacting operations.
