Sustainability seemed to be the keyword of the night whether it is neighbors watching out for each others' houses, as they do in Springfield, or individuals investing in their communities by spending their dollars in local businesses.  (Her campaign uses local vendors & suppliers.)

I look forward to more specific plans and ideas as the campaign gears up.

Politicking for Jacksonville's local elections was underway in earnest Monday night as nearly 200 Republicans gathered to cast votes in a straw poll ahead of the city's spring elections. The event, sponsored by the Jacksonville Young Republicans, drew young and old alike and produced a few surprises.
...

District 5 At-Large: Michelle Tappouni - 36, Robin Lumb - 32, Sean Hall - 26, Dane Grey - 20

The voting was supervised and tabulated by Duval County Supervisor of Elections Jerry Holland. You can find a complete listing of candidates who have filed for the races here.
