Focused on what matters here
A city that works
for all of us.
Good local government starts close to home: listening to residents, protecting the things we value, and building relationships across every neighborhood.
Local business, local strength
Support the small businesses and entrepreneurs who create jobs, serve our neighbors, and give Lake Forest its character.
A family-friendly Lake Forest
Preserve safe, welcoming neighborhoods and the quality of life that makes families proud to call our city home.
The issues close to home
What matters to
Lake Forest residents.
Our neighborhoods are strong because residents care deeply about their community. These are common concerns reflected in Lake Forest's public surveys, plans, and neighborhood conversations.
Tell Brittany what matters to youSafer streets and smoother traffic
Address speeding, dangerous intersections, neighborhood cut-through traffic, parking, crosswalks, and signal timing with practical, data-informed solutions.
Public safety that stays close to home
Support responsive police and emergency services, visible neighborhood partnerships, pedestrian safety, and responsible e-bike education and enforcement.
Well-maintained neighborhoods
Keep attention on streets, sidewalks, lighting, landscaping, street sweeping, noise, graffiti, and property maintenance in every part of District 2.
Responsible growth and housing choices
Evaluate development carefully, protect neighborhood character, and consider traffic, parking, schools, infrastructure, and housing options for every generation.
Wildfire readiness and resilience
Strengthen evacuation planning, emergency communication, fire preparedness, and coordination around the growing challenge of homeowners insurance.
Parks and programs for every age
Maintain welcoming parks, trails, sports fields, playgrounds, senior services, and community programs that help neighbors connect.
A thriving local economy
Help small businesses succeed, attract useful shops and restaurants, fill vacancies, and encourage development that works well beside our neighborhoods.
Compassionate, accountable outreach
Pair effective homelessness outreach and behavioral-health partnerships with clear expectations that keep public spaces safe and welcoming.
A City Hall that listens
Make city decisions easier to understand, communicate projects earlier, respond to residents promptly, and ensure every neighborhood has a voice.
Your neighborhood. Your voice.
What matters most
where you live?
Choose up to three priorities. Your response will help Brittany understand where residents want City Hall to focus first.

Unity doesn't mean we agree on everything. It means we care enough about our community to keep showing up for one another.

Meet Brittany
Rooted here.
Ready to serve.
I'm a wife, mother of three, small-business family member, ministry leader, and neighbor. My family and I have experienced firsthand how much a connected community matters.
I'm running for City Council because I believe local leadership should be accessible, thoughtful, and focused on people. I want to help create more opportunities for our neighborhoods to connect, support our local businesses, and preserve the welcoming, family-friendly environment we love.
This campaign is about us
Let's build a more
connected Lake Forest.
Every conversation matters. Share what matters to your neighborhood and help us bring people together across District 2.
