  • Know your candidates. I ran for office because Harrisburg was approving every development that came through the door. I didn't run to stop growth. I ran to slow it down and make better decisions that hit the community less hard. Now three candidates for County Commissioner are pushing incentives for builders and "missing middle" housing everywhere. That means big subdivisions, apartment complexes, duplexes and triplexes. When they're done, no spare piece of land is safe. Here's what many vote

  • Early Voting Starts Thursday I ran for office because Harrisburg was approving every development that came through the door. I didn't run to stop growth. I ran to slow it down and make better decisions that hit the community less hard. Now two candidates for County Commissioner want to hand builders incentives and push the "missing middle" everywhere. That means big suburban subdivisions, apartment complexes, duplexes, triplexes, all of it. When they're done, no spare piece of land is safe.

  • 🦊 NOVEMBER’S TAX REFERENDUM ISN’T WHAT IT SEEMS 🦊 This November, you’ll be asked to vote on a constitutional amendment that supporters say will finally protect you from runaway property taxes. Sounds great. Here’s what they’re not telling you. When Rep. Echevarria presented HB 1089 to the House Finance Committee, he promised it would: 📝 ”…establish limits on the growth rate of property tax levies, ensuring that any future increases are deliberate, transparent, and constrained within a defi

  • 🚨 HARRISBURG & CABARRUS COUNTY — YOUR STATE LEGISLATORS NEED TO HEAR FROM YOU. NOW. The NC Senate is moving a bill (SB 1047) that would strip your town’s ability to control how YOUR neighborhood grows. Here’s what’s actually in it: ❌ No more minimum lot sizes. That means developers could subdivide lots into postage-stamp parcels and pack in density that your roads, schools, and water systems simply cannot handle. ⏰ Automatic approval if government misses a deadline. One scheduling conflict.

  • Harrisburg residents — I need your attention on something important. There is a bill moving through the NC General Assembly right now (NC Senate Bill 445 – Regulatory Reform Act of 2026) that would force our town to allow apartments and accessory dwelling units in neighborhoods and commercial areas whether we want them or not — and would strip our Town Council of the authority to say otherwise. In our most recent community survey, 86% of you said Harrisburg already has enough housing. You told
