Any mayor that increases funding for social infrastructure projects and reduces encouragement of suburban sprawl (which just isn't sustainable any way you look at it) by building up, not out, gets my vote.
This city is large enough. Let's start maximizing the resources we have within current city borders, as opposed to expanding outward.
The more properties we have available inner-city, the lower it costs to live there. It's that simple. We need a mayor who becomes the catalyst for this and actively encourages densification.
