MEET GREG JULIAN
Dedicated to Public Service
Our Mission
Greg Julian's mission is to represent the people of Punta Gorda in ensuring, through smart development, that the character and economic viability of this small-town community remains consistent with the beauty and peacefulness that attracted us here.
Greg will help realign budget priorities consistent with the community's desire to have reliable water service, safe evacuation routes and safe pedestrian pathways. He will fight to protect and restore our harbor estuary to attract boaters and fishing enthusiasts that contribute to the economic viability of our community.
Vision for the Future
​• A City Council that makes decisions and set priorities that meet the needs and desires of the people of Punta Gorda.
• A city where all residents feel they have a voice in the direction and future of the community to maintain the waterfront charm that attracted us here.
​
• A city that promotes inclusion of the spectrum of members of our historic community as well as improving the beauty and activity to draw tourism and smart growth for the economic viability of our community.
• A city that prioritizes infrastructure and safety investments within the budget.
Greg Julian brings much-needed perspective to the council, focusing on:
-
Fiscal Responsibility – Punta Gorda urgently needs failing infrastructure repaired or replaced. Instead of spending tax dollars on misled budget priorities with constant cost overruns, we should be addressing flooding problems and other infrastructure needs, especially our water supply.
-
Safety improvements – there are numerous traffic safety hazards at pedestrian pathways around Punta Gorda that urgently need to be addressed.
-
Responsible economic development – maintaining the small-town character that attracted most of us to Punta Gorda is the core of the Council’s mission and vision. We must expeditiously reestablish our Land Development Regulations and eliminate the uncertainty and unintended consequences the repeal caused.
-
Serving the Community – Listening to the voices of the residents of Punta Gorda is essential to guiding the Council in making decisions for the community. I conduct monthly town halls to get input from the community on matters that the council will be voting on.
