The successful implementation of the Foreign Military Sales Project and the economic growth alongside it in the Fort Smith community. We must ensure we provide the support needed to handle the growth coming to our community effectively.
I would like to see us expand our focus on the quality of life for Fort Smith families through the care of our parks, expansion of Parrot Island, and support of those who desire to provide positive value for our residents.
I believe that the City Directors Board will have many opportunities over the next five years to invest in infrastructure that can serve as the foundation for the next generations.
