A Matthews gem off Hwy 51, Purser-Hulsey Park is beautiful as it is now, and will be amazing when the build-out from the bond funds finally come to reality. Take a drive over there and enjoy the view.

I’ll keep Matthews an outdoor experience!

Happy Friday! What a week it’s been. On Monday, I filed to be on the ballot in Nov. for Matthews Town Commission. I ran into my NC state senator, @woodsonbradley. If you think your vote doesn’t count, have a talk with her. She won by 209 votes.

On top of everything, we need to watch out for the Others. Who is that? Everyone! At some point, we all may be affected by this bill. We know of the obvious Others, already! Let’s take care of each other!

Matthews will be affected by the federal budget bill. How? That is to be determined. As a candidate & commissioner, I will work to ensure our residents, visitors & town services do not face many cuts that may need to be made.

Please, support me: https://t.co/T5zxEKOjbh

Just a few hours before the end of the quarter for funding. If you can help, it will be greatly appreciated. This will help with my finances to get me through to the election in November. I will be filing for candidacy next Monday, July 7.

Thank you!

Now that there are clouds blocking the sun it is nice outside. I’ll be here (Carolina Beer Temple) until at least 3. Come grab a beverage of any type and have a sit for a bit.

On Monday, I spoke out at the Town of Matthews Board of Commissioners meeting about the three commissioners who had alternative ideas for how to make the budget balanced. Forward to 4:40:00. It’s a pain to do, but I respect the town’s right to the video.

These options are fiscally irresponsible. I am glad that the other four members voted for the budget as written.
No one likes tax increases (the increases are from the bond as overwhelmingly approved by the electorate). When you have no other solutions things need to be done.

At last night’s #TownOfMatthews Commissioner’s meeting the FY 25-26 budget was passed. This was despite efforts of three members trying make it a balanced budget that the town manager and interim town manager stated was nearly impossible. Did they offer any solutions No!

[Brian Hacker For Matthews @Hacker4Matthews]

These were their solutions:
- Take from the emergency savings
- Be willing to take a penalty on payments of the bond money
- The most deplorable consideration: use affordable housing money and then “pay it back.”

Town of Matthews FY 25-26 budget passed on a 4-3 vote.

What does the “big beautiful bill” mean for towns of the country? I’m sure no one knows, yet. We will wait and see once something passes the Senate.

I anxiously wait for my chance to work through all of this in the Town of Matthews.

Let’s rise up and “…be the helpers.” that Mr. Roger’s told us to be.

Statement About ICE Activity in Charlotte

The actions of ICE in Charlotte on Monday, May 12 are disturbing. The message being sent by apprehending someone near enough to schools so that those in the area live in fear is “What’s next and when will it happen to me?”

all of the other municipalities in Mecklenburg County, and Charlotte need to be aware of their neighbors.

While the protection of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools stops at the edge of the schools, government officials and those aforementioned residents…
