Highway 65 expansion:
Shanti supports the advancement of the Highway 65 expansion to improve quality of life and pave the way for future economic development and job growth. Placer County is a highly desired location for businesses, and Shanti believes an important way to create jobs for our residents is to ensure we have the infrastructure to support those businesses.
Maximizing state and federal dollars for local use:
The monies available at the state and federal levels are tax dollars that should be brought back to the local level when at all possible. Shanti believes local control is incredibly important and is the most effective way of utilizing funding to get infrastructure projects done. She supports advocating at the state and federal levels to get those dollars back to Placer County.
Exploring innovative transportation ideas such as micro-transit, bicycle paths, and ride share programs:
With state regulations constantly changing and becoming more stringent on requirements for less “vehicle miles traveled,” Shanti believes we should be exploring ways to provide for alternative methods of transportation. This would include encouraging bike paths and trails in new development, offering micro-transit in places where it is fiscally prudent and in demand, and finding areas where we can improve already-existing infrastructure.
