Michael Hancock Releases Plan for First 100 Days

  • 0 Comments
  • by: Hancock for Denver

(May seem a little presumptuous to have a “first 100 days” plan already, but we encourage all candidates to submit to Pols. Have at it, polsters. – promoted by Denver Pols)

Mayoral candidate Michael Hancock today released his strategic First 100 Days Plan addressing his immediate priorities as mayor.

While Michael’s competitors have chosen to spend the last days before the May 3rd election attacking each other and refusing to take stands on critical issues, Michael finalized and rolled out his plan to lead Denver forward even before he takes office. Denver’s 45th mayor will be sworn in on July 18.  

“Leadership requires facing challenges and solving problems head on, not skirting the real issues when it is politically expedient,” Michael said. “This election shouldn’t be about us. It should be about Denver’s future and howto build consensus, make tough decisions and ensure no one is left behind.”

Joined by Denver business and community leaders, including former city economic development director John Huggins, Denver Public Schools board member Theresa Pena and former Public Safety Manager Al LaCabe, Michael outlined the immediate steps he will take within his first 100 days in office to begin fundamentally reshaping the future of our city.

“The next mayor has no time to waste,” Michael said. “We need someone who has the experience to lead Denver forward and reposition the city to emerge from the recession stronger and better. We need real leadership. My First 100 Days Plan will provide the initial steps to turn Denver’s challenges into opportunities.”

Michael’s First 100 Days Plan includes:

Designing and implementing a comprehensive strategy to recruit new businesses and jobs to Denver before the end of the year.

Creating the “Denver Education Compact,” a new and binding agreement requiring the City, Denver Public Schools, higher education and community stakeholders to make specific commitments to improve education throughout Denver.

Delivering a balanced budget to the City Council by Sept. 1, utilizing new strategies, as well as recommendations from the Structural Financial Task Force.

Restoring public trust in the Police Department by appointing a new Chief of Police, improving accountability and expanding community policing.

Michael’s First 100 Days Plan is the people plan.  Based on input from residents, businesses, policy experts, and out-of-the-box thinkers, Michael gathered ideas for his plan by listening and learning at business roundtables and meeting residents from every neighborhood in Denver.

“Michael has served on the City Council for eight years, including two terms as President, and is prepared to lead us forward,” Huggins said. “Only someone who has Michael’s current understanding of and dedication to this city would be able to fulfill this plan and get us moving forward.”

Even before Michael takes office, he will begin leading Denver forward during the transition period by naming new Cabinet members, addressing the city’s $100 million budget deficit, and convening key business and economic-development leaders.

Further, Michael will follow Gov. John Hickenlooper’s approach by involving people from all over Denver in the transition, including campaign opponents and their supporters.  Michael understands that the candidate who wins this race will need all of Denver behind his administration.

“I have fought for Denver neighborhoods for the past eight years and I am tested and ready to fight for you as your next mayor,” Michael said.
