Mike fought for and passed an ordinance making it easier for our city to inspect massage parlors for human trafficking.
His 6 months of work with the City attorney’s office, advocacy groups like Created and Polaris resulted in an ordinance making it harder for massage parlors and bath houses to continue or to set up in our City. It takes Vigilance to protect victims of trafficking AND make it harder for this evil to exist in our neighborhoods
Mike believes in safer streets for our neighborhoods and worked hard to create and promote our “Painted Intersection” program. Painted streets are a way to slow traffic, especially around parks and schools. Mike committed the time and effort looking at what other cities were doing and working with the city’s transportation department to make it a reality. He even helped paint the first one in South Seminole Heights! Mike’s commitment to our neighborhood’s safety is always there
Mike knows the importance of spending your tax money efficiently. He worked on Council to ask questions about wasteful spending on a paving machine the city could not use! It was not only a bad purchase, but we had to sell the machinery for a loss of over $125,000 of YOUR money. Mike understands how to find and eliminate these bad practices and you can trust he’s always there make to protect your money
