Top issues during term (20)
Summer 2026 Special Events and Street Closures
Minimal city cost for barricades and traffic control at approved events.
Data Center Development Pauses
A possible travel budget for a site visit may require a funding request to the county commissioners.
Event and festival street closures

Flock Surveillance Cameras and Budget Funding
The 2027 budget proposal reportedly includes about $265,000 for surveillance contracts, up from $142,500 this year — the money speakers want redirected.
Data center regulation
Unknown for now — the whole point of the committee is to study tax, utility-rate, and cleanup-cost impacts before anything is approved.
2026 Mill and Overlay-Phase III Street Paving
The repaving contract will cost roughly $201,000 to $255,000 depending on which bid is accepted.
2027 city budget
About $7 million in combined reductions across county funds for 2027.
AHTF Home Repair Program expansion
About $329,000 remains available for grants and loans, with each repair capped at a $25,000 grant.
Unsafe building enforcement across Evansville
Civil penalties of $500–$1,000 loom for owners who don't fix utility issues by March 19.
Fire Station 1 roof renovation
Renovations across eight stations will likely total several hundred thousand dollars, with bids from roughly $600K to $700K per contractor.
Potential donation and sales of land bank properties
The parcels would go for about $500 each, with new housing adding assessed value and neighborhood investment.
Data center development concerns
A hyperscale data center could roughly double the county's ~2 million tons of annual greenhouse gas emissions and pressure CenterPoint energy rates and water rates.
Mesker Park Zoo Maintenance and Infrastructure
Costs unknown until quotes come back.
Youth Gun Violence and Community Support
Null

Adds $13,175 to the renovation contract, bringing it to $731,966.15.
2026 Mill and Overlay-Phase IV street repaving
Costs will be set once bids are received.
Officer termination appeal (Officer Anthony Stephenson)
Mark Norman Ditch Obstruction Cleanup Deadline
Cleanup costs fall on property owners; county contractor work would be billed to violators if they fail to act.
