Priorities
Elect Chris Wiegenstein - Oak Harbor City Council, Position 2
My priority is to bring our community together.
My vision for our community and the City of Oak Harbor is to - encourage even more opportunities for small business growth, promote partnerships with for-profit and non-profit organizations serving Oak Harbor residents, and foster the development of appealing and engaging places for all to share in being a community.
Bringing our community together
First, my main priority is to bring the Oak Harbor community together. One idea is to find a way to develop a community/sport complex open to all citizens. I believe the City of Oak Harbor can provide many diverse activities, programs, and venues to help our citizens enjoy this great city.
Promoting mental health
Second, mental health in our community and across the globe is a major issue worth acting on. There is room in our discussions and planning to find a way to support members of Oak Harbor with avenues to improve mental health.
Promoting Workforce Housing
Third, workforce housing is an issue in keeping our community supported. There must be a way as a city we can find common solutions to ensure our workforce is able to live in the community in which they work.
