Kat Pasquatch’s Priority Issues

Fiscal responsibility:

Practice fiscal responsibility on the campaign trail and keeping a stable property tax

Street and road safety:

Prioritize road maintenance and pothole repair, improve traffic control in school zones/high-volume areas, assess speed limits to keep everyone safe, hold landlords of neglected and vacant homes accountable for their properties/sidewalks, expand street safety programs like Snow Angels

Housing that puts people first:

Focus on advocacy and resources for social housing and shelter support., incentives for new developments of co-operative housing, resulting in a place to call home with stable rent, pushing back on for-profit corporations and multi-home owners for detached houses, semi-detached houses, and townhouses, protecting our residents from exploitative landlords and moving forward with Windsor’s Residential Rental Licensing program.

Crime reduction:

Youth programming: after school activities, developing peer support/mentorship/job training programs, intervention programs Basic needs for the unhoused: daytime facilities outside of shelter spaces, supervised consumption and safer-use services, improve access to food, shelter, beds, showers, and clean clothing
