Danny Nowell, Carrboro Town Council

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

66% : There are many things Carrboro does right that have made it such a wonderful place to live, and our local government should be commended in particular for adopting Non-Discrimination Ordinances protecting LGTBQ+ people and other marginalized neighbors.
51% : The economic ramifications of this status quo for our town are very real: as property taxes drive so much of our revenue, we are increasingly beholden to raising taxes on a class of assets fewer and fewer people have access to, when we need to be pursuing means to stimulate local business and adding homeowners to the equity pool in the currently non-existent middle of the market.
