Top issues during term (8)(General)
surveillance cameras
$70,025 from the 2026 General Services budget.
urban densification
Smart growth could lead to more affordable housing options and a stronger local tax base without expanding the city's footprint.
AI data centers in Lancaster County
Unknown — the projects are private, and the county says it has no direct role.
minimum wage legislation
Low-wage workers could see bigger paychecks, while small businesses may face higher payroll costs and possibly pass some costs to customers.
home rule study referendum
The study itself may cost some taxpayer money, but the bigger financial question is whether home rule could eventually change taxing and spending rules—though that is not decided yet.
immigration policy
There’s no confirmed dollar figure yet, but the county could face added legal costs and risk to federal or state grants if the scrutiny escalates.
homeless encampment removal
The delay may avoid immediate clearance costs, but the city still carries ongoing sanitation, safety, and staff-time expenses.
home rule charter adoption
It could shift how city taxes, spending, and services are managed, but the real cost picture won’t be clear until the charter is put into practice.
