A WORD FROM THE MAYOR

I'm grateful to have served this city as your mayor for the last two years. This report is for you.

We set out to build a city that’s financially responsible; a city that capitalizes on all the state and federal resources at its disposal; a city that forges lasting partnerships with our businesses and communities; a city that’s a great place to live, work and play.

This report will show you millions in savings and new funding sources we've secured in just a few years. You'll see widespread efforts to restore neighborhoods, improve education, pave roads and help businesses stay afloat in troubled times.

You'll find technological improvements that made city services more accessible and responsive to our residents. And all of this was made possible by a dedicated cabinet and workforce that are as diverse as the community they serve.

However, this isn't a time to celebrate. We're still working against the decades of neglect that squandered this city's tremendous potential. Just as we're starting to see progress, we now face an unprecedented health crisis - one that doesn't appear to be going away any time soon.

But time waits for no one. This city cannot afford to simply endure the pandemic. We have to adapt, overcome and continue to advance our safety, prosperity, and future - and that's exactly what we
are going to do.


W. Reed Gusciora
Mayor
