Kim Roney on Affordability
- Affordability includes:
- Leveraging our housing bonds and Helene recovery funds for the deeply-affordable housing our community needs to stabilize displaced, working class, poor, and disabled neighbors and their families and to prevent homelessness;
- Leading for a more reliable, regional transit system at the intersection of equitable access, economic mobility, and environmental sustainability;
- Securing our food and water systems by supporting local farms and community gardens and addressing the cost of groceries;
- Diversifying our economy and supporting local business through Helene recovery; and
- Pressing the City to regain our living wage certification so our staff that provide core services can afford to live in the communities they serve.
