Rogers: Revenue Generation, Infrastructure, and Debt
PL: What concrete solutions do you propose to address these issues?
Editor’s note: Rogers says he’ll increase revenue by working to lure large corporations to the city.From Rogers:To clarify, by increasing the revenue base using smart development (as an example encouraging large employers to open locations in Manassas Park and negotiating more with the City Center Developer to build-out the spaces that are in the City Center) we can attack the debt issue. I am opposed to increasing the amount of taxes that individuals already pay.
PL: From your perspective, what is the job description of the office you’re seeking?
Rogers: From my perspective, the City Council is an advocate for the people – own who has the chance to interact with people on a regular basis and one that has the duty of communicating their concerns. But, the City Council also has the duty of protecting the City, foreseeing issues, and being a stabilizing force. Lastly, I would say that the person on City Council has the duty of not going it alone , but of being a team player.
PL: What expertise will you bring to the office?
Rogers: Accountant, contract manager, counselor, teacher
PL: Do you feel that the average citizen is well informed and understands the workings of city government? If not, how do you intend on improving communication with your constituency?
