Steve's Vision

Lead Wooster in being positioned to meet the challenges of the second half of the 21st century. This means respecting our past, building towards the future, all while meeting the needs of the present. 

Continue to lead on allocating public funds for the support of private investment in downtown Wooster, while also supporting the needs of downtown entrepreneurs. 

Foster close relationships with community partners such as the Wayne County Commissioners, Chamber of Commerce, Wayne Economic Development, Visitors Bureau and Main Street Wooster, and anyone who wants to see Wooster succeed

Establish development standards that support the construction of affordable housing units throughout the City of Wooster. Working with lenders to provide loans to resident owners or home buyers of historic housing stock.

Wooster must grow in order to support existing industry and remain competitive with neighboring communities. This growth must be done responsibly and focus on utilizing parcels currently in the City, while being respectful of the farming community. 

​

Engage Citizenry with an open door policy focused on hearing and being responsive to the needs of our citizenry.
