Frederick is a city of 65,000 people with a budget of $79 million. Management of a city of this size is a complex management task that requires people of competence, experience and vision to do it. My platform lays out the principal components of my vision for the city.
Part One: My Vision for the City of Frederick
Part Two: Specific Planks of C. Paul Smith’s Platform
At this time the City of Frederick faces several challenges that I believe require the leadership and abilities of someone such as myself to help us meet them. For the city to successfully address, accomplish and meet these challenges, it is important that we have elected officials with the vision, wisdom, experience and courage to meet the challenges and bring success to the City.
I submit that I am uniquely qualified and able to help the city meet these challenges. These challenges include:
- maintaining a strong city economy during a serious national and international financial crisis
- maintaining an efficient and thrifty city government
- continuing to bring businesses to Carroll Creek, Monocacy Boulevard, and other key locations in the city
- completing key annexations to the city
- finding a new and permanent home for the Police Department
- moving forward on key transportation projects, including:
- Monocacy Blvd,
- the US 15/Monocacy Blvd interchange,
- securing the commitment of the State to rebuild and widen the bridges for US 15 at Patrick Street, Rosemont Ave. and 7th Street as break-out priorities on the I-270/US 15 Multi-Modal study/project. There are over a dozen additional projects and initiatives that the next city administration will need to meet.
