Someone once told me that the sign of an effective local government is when all segments of a community's population are addressed by City services. That is what makes Bridgeport unique. City and community services and programs address the needs of all community members.
People feel safe, comfortable and listened to in Bridgeport.
The quality of life is unsurpassed by any community its size in the United States. Seven years ago, the community voted to institute the City Manager form of government. With strong support form the City Mayor and City Council, I have the benefit of being able to administer to the needs of the community without being bogged down in the quagmire of local politics. What this means to you is that you can have your concerns and needs met, as a community member, without having to go through a long fight with a faceless bureaucracy. As you view the City of Bridgeport's website, you will find it creative and stimulating.
