Campaign Platform

Having immersed himself in the Natchitoches community from a public service and volunteer perspective for many years, Greg has kept himself knowledgeable as it relates to Natchitoches’ strengths and weaknesses.

Greg is a team player and if elected, will collaborate with the mayor, city council and, most importantly, the Natchitoches community to discuss and seek input regarding issues and ways to position the city for growth and a bright future.

He will be a true “man of the people” and will seek and value insight from all corners of the city if elected; he has, in fact, spent time during the early phase of his campaign doing just that. Below are a few bullet points which reflect Greg’s areas of emphasis if elected.

The Burke Platform

  • Confronting juvenile crime is crucial for our city’s growth. Develop a decisive plan, leveraging increased law enforcement support and stricter consequences for offenders.
  • Addressing infrastructure, with a focus on utility rates, is essential. Involve the public and clearly outline how any rate adjustments will directly benefit our community.
  • Prioritizing workforce, jobs, and economic development is vital, recognizing that crime and infrastructure challenges hinder these key initiatives. The Natchitoches NEXT plan is a positive step forward, and the public must be kept informed as it unfolds.
