Susan Burgess
Susan Burgess is currently serving her second term on the Charlotte City Council. As a Council member, Burgess has worked to balance the budget and preserve services without raising taxes. Charlotte's explosive growth has contributed to many problems for the city, including transportation and business growth. From the standpoint of transportation, Burgess is wary of mass transit's approach to traffic congestion. As business continues to grow, Burgess fears that the use of incentives will erode the public's faith in local government.
