Jessica believes that addressing the physical, financial, mental and social impacts of the COVID-19 virus needs to be at the top of the priority list for the City. City Council can play a role in a variety of ways. Council can encourage residents to follow the current guidelines to slow the spread of COVID-19. Council can continue advocating to state and federal legislators to receive more funding to support businesses in the community, especially our small, locally owned businesses. Council can continue to support resources such as rental, utility, and childcare assistance. In terms of mental and social impacts, Council can show support for initiatives surrounding behavioral health services, whether it is improved access, reduced substance abuse or promoting better overall health.

Affordable Housing

Fort Collins is growing at a rapid rate, as many residents enjoy the various aspects of a great city. From our access to nature, employment opportunities, high quality education and low crime rates, people who move here often stay for a lifetime. A challenge with the growth is being able to offer healthy, stable housing that is affordable

Fort Collins is growing at a rapid rate, as many residents enjoy the various aspects of a great city. From our access to nature, employment opportunities, high quality education and low crime rates, people who move here often stay for a lifetime. A challenge with the growth is being able to offer healthy, stable housing that is affordable. In participating in Home2Health conversations over the past year, 6 big challenges were identified as barriers to affordable housing. Following the process, 50+ possible strategies were shared to improve access to affordable housing. City Council can continue to advocate for assistance programs currently in place and support efforts for affordable housing development. Due to a variety of factors, we have also seen the number of people experiencing homelessness rise and Council can continue to support resources for vulnerable populations.

 Fort Collins attracts many people for its' focus on natural areas, outdoor recreation, and the environment. However, these aspects are at risk due to climate change.

 Fort Collins attracts many people for its' focus on natural areas, outdoor recreation, and the environment. However, these aspects are at risk due to climate change. This summer's wildfires were a grave reminder of how quickly loss of life and property can occur and at the same time a positive reminder to how swiftly the community comes together to support one another. Jess appreciates the City and Council's efforts to fight climate change and would continue to support the goals laid out in Our Climate Future plans. Jess also supports the Council's acknowledgement of Indigenous People's rights and knowledge of their homelands and believe Council should increase involvement of Indigenous People in Our Climate Future plans.

 

Jess also supports expanding open space, but will recuse herself from any Hughes-related decision due to her employment at Colorado State University to set the precedent for a new kind of leadership from District 4, where the residents of the District and Fort Collins are the only priority. Additionally, Jess supports a free-flowing Poudre and will make it clear to developers that the Poudre is off-limits to new development.
