The future of Evansville is in our hands. Our actions must positively steer the future of our community so that every resident embraces ‘e’ being for everyone. And with so much potential, it is imperative that we aim high.
Whether it is housing or ensuring every resident has access to food, it is important that we remain focused on solving issues and not political divisiveness. I’m grateful that my colleagues and I can discuss critical matters without falling prey to the national narrative.
As we work through COVID-19, we have an opportunity to reset systems, norms, and our approach to tackling issues such as economic inequities, food insecurities, and systems that work against our most vulnerable. I mention these things specifically because these issues are preventing too many residents from believing in our city’s ambitious statement.
Equity and intentionality must dominate every conversation and plan related to the future of Evansville. Solving these problems will not be easy, but it must be done. Count on me to remain focused on these things that will dictate what our future will become.

A lot of words without saying anything, eh, Alex? Nothing about supporting our police department? Nothing about “social injustice”? Just a lot of politician words.
If you folks are struggling for content and need to fill pages, i suggest a little more Alex Burton and way less John Krull….
+1.
