Mount Holly City Council Member

• Policing — City council has a say over how many police officers the city hires, what equipment the police get, and how they are trained.

• Quality of Roads — City council has the power to improve roads and build new ones through specific projects.

• Civil Rights — The city council can pass a discrimination ordinance that prohibits discrimination in access to public spaces and specify which classes of citizens are protected under the ordinance. For example, in August 2021, the City of Charlotte added familial status, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, veteran status, pregnancy, and natural hairstyle as protected classes.
