  1. There's a big cult headquarters in my town. I would take away their "religious" tax exempt status. They own so much property!

  2. I'd increase funding for education (teachers salaries, classroom supplies and resources, funding for building and field trips and experts to visit) The funding can come from the other two changes

  3. I would put a huge tax on any homes where the owners of the home are not the primary/full time occupants. This is a big tax on private equity firms that buy houses, second homes owned by out of towners, and landlords. Our community will benefit from citizens who are fully committed to our town and single home owners should have an advantage in our housing market.
