“Auburn is an amazing city with a ton of potential to continue to grow and attract new residents and businesses. However, in recent history, there has been a division in local politics. As your city councilmember, it is my pledge to work with the Mayor and my fellow councilmembers to put personal politics aside so we can move Auburn forward, together. We have big city problems that we are facing including homelessness, the opioid epidemic, affordable housing and improving the quality of life for our residents. It is going to take a true partnership between the city, residents and the business community to develop innovative solutions to make headway on these problems. I also think it is imperative we set benchmarks so our community members know we are actually making progress on these fronts and we have results to show,” said Jeyaraj.

“I want to work hard to bring jobs and economic opportunity home for our residents. But in order to continue to attract quality employers and new residents we need to make strategic investments to ensure Auburn is a place we are all proud to call home. This means we need to invest additional funds in public safety, repairing our roadways and sidewalks and ensuring we continue to have a vibrant parks system. These are amenities that new residents and businesses look at when looking for a new home. I want to create an Auburn that is welcoming to everyone and ensure it is a place where everyone sees an opportunity for themselves,” concluded Jeyaraj.
