Protect and Benefit Residents
Arlington’s seniors and low income residents need protection from the higher taxes caused by the multiple overrides that were necessary to support our schools. I promise to advocate for:
​
-
expanded property tax exemptions and discounts to low income families and individuals
-
increased affordable housing earmarks for new developments
-
increased/expanded home- and condo-buying opportunities and programs for low and modest income families, teachers and individuals
-
increased commercial development to reduce residents' tax burden and expand student internship/job opportunities
-
the establishment of a Fair Housing Commission or Committee.
-
programs that enable all residents to benefit from the new high school such as indoor track time for walkers and access to space for meetings and functions
