BUILT TO BE USEFUL: RICHMOND TOOLBOX

FACEBOOK / LINKEDIN
A builder should leave you with something useful.

I built five free tools for Richmond: a home-project permit helper, a property-tax calculator, a City service finder, a development application search, and a voting planner with calendar reminders.

The sources sit beside the answers. The limits are explained. No account required.

These are independent resources on my personal website, not City services or official party statements. Try them, check the sources, and tell me what could work better.

INTRODUCE THE PERSONAL BLOG

FACEBOOK / LINKEDIN
Richmond, in my own words.

I’ve started a personal blog to explain the thinking behind my priorities: careful spending, better city services, and follow-through. You’ll also find more about my background as a builder, and why I’m running for Richmond City Council.

These are my own views and proposals, not official party statements. I’ll link my sources and make room to explain the details.

WHY I’M RUNNING

FACEBOOK / LINKEDIN
A campaign sign gives you a name. I want you to know how I think.

My first blog post explains why I’m running for Richmond City Council, what building software and community tools has taught me, and how I want residents to judge my work.

Understand the problem. Examine the cost. Make the process clear. Follow through. Those are the habits I want to bring to council.

PROPERTY TAXES & CITY SPENDING

FACEBOOK / LINKEDIN
Before asking residents for more, I want city hall to show what it can do better with the money it already collects.

In my latest personal blog post, I explain four questions I would ask about major spending: the full cost, the useful result, the alternatives, and how we will check the outcome.

That means examining recurring costs while protecting essential services and maintenance. Real savings need evidence.

HOUSING & BUILDING PERMITS

FACEBOOK / LINKEDIN
An application status should help you understand what happens next.

Richmond already has MyPermit. My focus is how to build on that work: clearer requirements, useful updates, realistic service targets, and someone responsible for follow-through.

In this personal blog post, I explain why improving the process goes hand in hand with safety standards and planning services alongside housing.
