Helen Grant announces Ward 4 candidacy with ‘equity and inclusion’ focus

Grant said they want to focus on affordable housing for people struggling with homelessness, and on affordable water for residents who are having trouble paying their bills. The three things they are most passionate about are homelessness, mental health and economic development, Grant said.

“I know this is a nonpartisan seat and honestly, I don’t think these (are partisian issues),” they said. “I think anybody on the political spectrum can end up homeless, in a bad living situation or need affordable water.”
