What they are promising
Their own platform, in their own words. Not checked against their record.
Very limited conventional municipal platform publicly documented. I would not infer positions on housing, environment or development without a direct campaign source. His candidacy is primarily notable because of his prior political activity and legal history rather than a developed municipal policy platform.
