In a statement to CCX News, she said her “only agenda is what is best for Brooklyn Center.” In office for another term, she hoped to see a sensible and safe solution to Hwy 252 with the least resident impact, a variety of housing and retail in the city, and more development that would lessen the property tax burden on homeowners.
