Promote Downtown Vibrancy

Complete the Downtown Project

I am committed to transforming our downtown into a space that our community members take pride in. To achieve this, I'm focusing on three key areas:

Downtown Project:

  • Replace the sidewalks to prevent unsafe trip hazards.

  • Introduce a bike lane for multimodal traffic.

  • Shift the focus from car traffic to enhancing the overall downtown experience for pedestrians.

Bypass Completion:

  • Redirect vehicles away from downtown to reduce congestion and noise.

Business Growth:

  • Collaborate with the Economic Vitality Committee and other economic groups.

  • Strategize on recruiting new businesses to the downtown area.

  • Support existing downtown businesses to thrive and strengthen.

The ultimate goal is to cultivate a vibrant and active downtown that attracts and delights our community members.

Increase Community Events

I envision Pullman as a city where residents never feel there's a lack of activities. To ensure this vibrant community spirit, I'm focusing on:

Increasing Activities:

  • Aim to provide diverse options so no one feels there's "nothing to do".

Personally Engaging in Events:

  • Spearheading the "Three Forks River and Arts Festival".

  • Oversee the "Chili Bowl" during the lentil festivals to support its growth.

Supporting Diverse Events:

  • Cultural

  • Athletic

  • Experiential

My goal is to foster a lively community where there's always something happening, enriching the lives of our residents.
