Fort Wayne’s Infrastructure is Critical

FORT WAYNE’S FUTURE DEPENDS ON SOLID INFRASTRUCURE

Building for tomorrow starts with the basics

During my time on city council we have been diligent about putting money aside for critical projects for Fort Wayne, but we now need a plan for our city’s future.

GROW LOCAL BUSINESS

The fastest way to grow is to build on what is already here, and that includes local businesses.

BETTER DRAINAGE

We are a city of rivers so we must be sure water travels where it needs to without flooding. 

SAFE ROADS AND BRIDGES

We need to keep Fort Wayne connected in the city and within the region.

COORDINATED IMPROVEMENTS

Managing a city includes making its growth more bearable to the people already here.

Donte to Tom’s campaign
Tom Didier points to improvements to Lima Road he advocated for many years.

I know this topic is not what people like to talk about, but well-managed infrastructure will make the difference between our city continuing to grow and create opportunities or falling to the wayside. We are in great shape with money that has been put in place for our current needs and the combined sewer overflow mitigation, but we must not rest on our success.

I am running to be mayor, but I will need your help to put these changes in action. Click the links below to learn more about my plans or sign up to make Fort Wayne responsive to its residents.
