Attract businesses to fill the vacant, eye-sore buildings from businesses that have shut down. Citrus Heights is becoming a business graveyard (mall, old Rite Aids, restaurant buildings, etc.) ","Logical outreach for blight accountability. ","Affordable housing","Maintain the streets. ","We need to make the streets safer first for pedestrians and children to walk on, then to access public transportation, then to allow for bicycle transportation. There’s too many sidewalks and bike lanes that lead to dead ends, so they aren’t very effective. What’s being done on Auburn Blvd. is good and needs to be done on more of the major arteries.","Stop being junk food capital","Street potholes!

But that is difficult for an infill city/suburb like CH that isn't very affluent.  As it is most of my shopping and dining are done in Roseville, with some in Folsom.  We lose out on sooooo much sales tax because of the dearth of decent shopping/dining.  Birdcage is about the only bright spot in the city but even it doesn't have dining.  We are the fast food capitol of the Sacramento area.","Would be ideal if the city could purchase some properties or be gifted propterties.  Somehow, the properties could be used to provide \"hand-up\" opportunities for homeless young adults and families; addiction treatment; sober living facilities (most people can't afford $900 to $1100 a month for sober living now, imagine 5 years from now); community houses for our loved ones with developmental and intellectual disabilities.  There is lots of houses with acreage that could be purchased and used for the good of the community; not just for more houses to collect property taxes. ","Code enforcement needs to make sure auto repair is not done as a business out of a home.  Also,  car lots such as the home at 8240 Old Auburn Rd surely have to be against the rules of CH.","Visual appeal (no blighted properties; minimal homeless, clean, paved safe streets, attractive housing)","Repair the streets to last a long time.","Road repairs","Decrease blight and homelessness","Get rid of homeless encampments.

Figure out how to repurpose vacant business store fronts. Give more opportunity/incentive  for civic engagement. ","Cleanliness","Everyone driving a city vehicle on the city payroll clock should be the eyes and ears for problems.  When they see graffiti, they should report it.  When they see a homeless camp, they should report it.  When they see trash in the street or a shopping car in the street, they should report it.  Code Enforcement should take initiative, and deal with things they see proactively - not just respond to calls reactively.  City workers should take pride in our city and show some initiative.  ","Fixing the streets \u0026 roads ","Fix the streets","Make the right choice for the Sunrise Mall project.  We need something that is like Pavilions, The Fountains or Palladio. We do NOT want Home Depot and a bunch of fast food. That will not draw people from other areas to come and shop here, creating a larger tax base. The offer being pitched right now is just a cheap, fast way to get revenue but not growing the perception of Citrus Heights as a place to come from Roseville, Fair Oaks and Folsom for a good meal, some interesting shopping and entertainment.

NO MORE FAST FOOD RESTAURANTS and NO HOME DEPOT. ","Make it prettier with more plants, thoughtfully constructed shopping centers and throughfares, and clean, clean, clean. The addition of benches, garbage cans, and dog bags along Old Auburn was a win! Take advantage of our name, Citrus Heights, and add all types of citrus trees/plants/shrubs everywhere reasonable.

To answer that question, each citizen probably would  have a different answer, depending on their life circumstances .  So one solution: Road repair…. Sounds trite? But it’s not.  Repairing the roads and the potholes would improve the quality of life for the entire Citrus  Heights community because everyone uses the roads. The positive change would occur because:  #1.  The citizenry would see that their concerns were heard and acted upon.  #2. The appearance of the city would be upgraded as soon as new roads began being constructed.   #3.  Trashy roads = assumptions (from outsiders) that the rest of the city is tacky and trashy, too.  If the external part of the city looks like that, what does the unseen parts of the city look like? And finally #4.  First impressions count!  If a family or business is planning to relocate to Citrus Heights and the first thing they experience are degraded, rutted roads, what does that say to these people? Nothing good, I’d assume!  ","Change from being a contract city to bringing services in- house. A lot of money is wasted on companies like Republic which provide inferior service at a high cost. ","Blight, such a run down shopping centers, and vacant buildings. Attract higher end businesses, fix the roads","The part of Citrus Heights I live in doesn’t even feel safe enough for me to walk my dog alone, so crime and safety are my number one concern above all else. If the city could change one thing to improve the quality of life the most, it would be addressing crime—whether that means increasing police presence, improving street lighting, or taking stronger action against repeat offenders. Feeling safe in my own neighborhood should be a basic expectation, not a luxury.","Repair streets.","Do everything in your power to ensure the Sunrise Tomorrow Specific Plan moves forward (without the proposed amendments from Ethan Conrad). We already have an abundance of big box stores, fast food places, and random small businesses (some are great, others are questionable). Having a true “heart of the city” with unique, quality, upscale businesses and other innovative uses will fix many issues the city currently has and prevent future similar issues by bringing in more revenue and attracting more high quality businesses across the city as well as more residents who care about their community.
