The Challenge
Development decisions and public incentives often move faster than clear information reaches the people who live nearby. Residents deserve to understand how proposals affect homes, traffic, infrastructure and public services.
Why It Matters
Harvey’s future should open doors for the people who already live here: jobs and apprenticeships, youth leadership, stronger local businesses, and development that strengthens the community as well as the tax base.
Colby's Position
I support responsible investment. Before major development decisions, residents deserve understandable information about the proposal’s effects on nearby homes, traffic, infrastructure and public services. When public incentives are requested, the community should understand the expected benefits, costs and commitments.
Proposed Approach
Stronger connections to jobs and apprenticeships, youth leadership opportunities, support for local businesses, and development that strengthens our community as well as our tax base.
What Success Looks Like
A Growing Harvey where opportunity reaches the people who call this city home, and where major decisions come with clear information about costs, benefits and commitments.
My Priorities
- Stronger connections to jobs and apprenticeships
- Youth leadership opportunities
- Support for local businesses
- Development that strengthens our community as well as our tax base
Other Pillars
Safe Harvey
Safety begins with dependable police, fire and emergency services, but it does not end there. It includes secure vacant properties, safe housing, functioning streetlights, reliable water infrastructure and neighborhoods that receive consistent maintenance.
Accountable Harvey
Accountability means more than publishing a budget. It means explaining spending, documenting decisions, responding to audit concerns and reporting whether plans are on track.
Healthy Harvey
A healthy Harvey means residents can connect with care, find support and live in neighborhoods that support their well-being.
