Greenfield faces many challenges in the next 20 years as the population center of Minneapolis continues to spread outward. I have witnessed and experienced these challenges as the same things happened where I grew up in southwest Maple Grove. I was able to get a three and a half year inside view of city business in Plymouth, learning what the city had done wrong in the past, what they did right, how it is affecting them now. I now have had 2 years to learn how Greenfield operates, and what challenges, challenge it the most. I have built many relationships with politicans and appointed officials (Met Council) that represent Greenfield, some of which go back many years. I have built even more relationships with residents of Greenfield and am building more and more every day! Relationships matter! I have more to learn, but I am ready to hit the ground running....for you.
