Many corridors in CD13 feel neglected — broken sidewalks, poor lighting, graffiti, trash overflow, and inconsistent maintenance. Residents deserve neighborhoods that feel safe, welcoming, and cared for.

We also left money on the table. A significant portion of budgeted funds for green spaces and neighborhood improvements went unused. That is unacceptable. If money is allocated, it should be deployed efficiently and transparently.

Revival isn’t theoretical — it’s operational.

PAIN POINTS

• Underutilized green space funds
• Poor lighting and sidewalk conditions
• Trash and graffiti buildup
• Empty lots and inactive spaces
• Lack of visible follow-through from City Hall

SOLUTIONS

• Audit unused green space and improvement funds
• Establish quarterly public budget transparency updates
• Launch corridor-specific improvement plans
• Expand community-driven park programming
• Fast-track small-scale beautification grants
