What should we do to strengthen our community?

I want to use this blog to encourage an open discussion regarding what legislation could help our community. I hope we can use this as an opportunity to debate what legislation would bring the most benefit to the most people within our community. Lets debate ideas like building a sidewalk, improving the roads, implementing legislation to alleviate homelessness, low-income housing, zoning laws, local safety, or whatever issue you believe will improve the community.
