MORE COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT IN THE
LOCATION OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
Gary Bechtel knows that the threat of unrestrained housing growth will
diminish the character of many neighborhoods in Monroe County. He
will fight for more community input into decisions on location of
affordable housing developments financed through the Georgia Dept.
of Community Affairs. Affordable housing is a need for many but it is
not consistent with the suburban growth that has taken place in
Monroe County over the last 25 years.

Create incentives to attract new businesses and industries along
