Steve Crosby

15660 Oakhill Ct., Livonia, MI 48154

Hello citizens of Livonia! My name is Steve Crosby and I am running for our City Council. There are many reasons why I am applying for this job and I wish to share those reasons with you. My first and favorite reason is because I love Livonia and our community. My childhood was an incredible experience that is due to our city’s focus on supporting our families. Growing up I attending Adams elementary, Riley Middle School, and went on to Franklin High school and Graduated in 2005 from Churchill High School. I am attending Grand Valley State University where I am finishing a B.S. in Public Administration. I have served as a V.P. of our Student Senate and became the first President of the Student Association of Michigan. My Qualities and skills include the ability to work with people, think critically, and manage responsibly in this public setting which I would bring to this position. I have full confidence in my abilities and knowledge to serve our government. I am very ambitious and I have lots of ideas for our city. I have devoting my life to public service and I will work hard for you!

Priorities

Our city faces many issues which must be address properly to ensure Livonia’s prosperous future. These issues can be handled and must be solved. My first concern is with the city’s budget. Currently, we are headed in the direction of creating a deficit. As we know, our cities property taxes support a large portion of revenue, and we are losing that revenue due to the business economy and citizens moving. This problem can be address by prioritizing every tax dollar that comes in and slimming down our expenses. Another issue that I will bring to the table is our community development efforts. I believe we can solve a multitude of issues if we expand efforts in this area. We need to make Livonia more attractive to families and businesses by creating an atmosphere that further enhances the quality of family life. I am also running of the basic principle of council transparency. This is your city government and your community! I will strive to make it apparent to our citizens what the council does by increasing civic involvement. Let’s vote for new ideas, let’s vote for Steve Crosby.
