Trash Ordinance

Greg is the only Candidate willing to say in Public that he is against the Organized Trash Ordinance that passed in November 2019.

Education

Greg believes that the children in the St Paul Public School District have been underserved by the DFL Controlled School Board, the Teachers’ Union, and the current Superintendent. Greg believes all the students in the St Paul Public Schools can achieve their full potential.  He believes that ALL MINDS MATTER.

Crime

Our St Paul Police Department needs to be a priority.  There are a number of things a functioning and vibrant city needs, being safe in one’s own home, neighborhood, schools, and at work.  The St Paul mayor has sent a signal to all law abiding citizens that he does not want to protect them anywhere in the city.  He has undercut the job the St Paul Police Department does.  It is a dangerous job and his actions have encouraged gangs, violent criminals to flourish without a care of being arrested, nor prosecuted.  That’s a powder keg waiting for a spark to ignite it.

As the City Manager of Maplewood Greg was able to hold the taxes citizens pay at the same time Greg was able to hire more police and first responders to protect the citizens of Maplewood.
