Steve Lavine Announces Candidacy

for Plano City Council, Pl. 2

“I truly believe Plano is a City of Excellence and I’m committed to keeping it that way.”

Meet Steve Lavine

“As your city council representative, I will work for you. I will make sure that every penny you pay in taxes is spent carefully and wisely.” Steve Lavine

PRIORITIES FOR PLANO

Plano is the premiere destination for both employers and employees in the metroplex. Our city constantly ranks near the top of most livable, most diverse, and most welcoming cities in the United States. I’m ready to work to keep Plano the best place for you and your family to live, work, and grow.

LET’S KEEP PLANO HEALTHY

A healthy city is a prosperous city. The health and welfare of all Plano residents will be my number one goal. Masks have proven the most effective method of slowing the pandemic and getting us all back to work and school. As a city, Plano must do all it can to provide a safe environment and expedite vaccine distribution.

LET’S KEEP PLANO SAFE

Since peaking 2003, Plano’s crime rate has dropped to its lowest in many years. I support our police and firefighters and the excellent job they have done keeping our city safe.

LET’S DEVELOP PLANO RESPONSIBLY

We need to tackle our city’s maturity head on. As your City Council representative, I will fight to ensure that we continue investing in our libraries, recreation centers, and our neighborhoods. I’ll make sure we keep up with the needs of our aging infrastructure. We can keep our tax rates the lowest in North Texas without sacrificing timely maintenance projects. Shortchanging Plano now will cost homeowners later and hamper the city’s ability to keep up with renewal.
