Your Voice For Concerns

Infrastructure

I’m committed to addressing the everyday issues that impact our streets and neighborhoods—potholes, broken sidewalks, malfunctioning streetlights, missing street signs, and hazardous blind spots at intersections. These are more than just inconveniences; they affect safety and quality of life. I’ll stay on top of these concerns to keep our community moving forward!

 

Vacant Properties

Abandoned homes can be more than an eyesore—they impact property values, attract crime, and pose safety hazards. I’m committed to securing vacant properties and ensuring condemned structures are removed to revitalize our neighborhoods and create a safer, cleaner community.

Safety

Everyone deserves to feel safe walking and driving in our neighborhoods. I’m committed to improving crosswalks on busy streets and finding effective solutions to reduce speeding in residential areas. Safer streets start with proactive action!

I was born and raised in Lorain, and this city is home—not just for me, but for my family and so many of us who care deeply about our community. I know we all want to see real change, and I’m ready to step up and make it happen.

I’m committed to making Ward 5 cleaner, safer, and more welcoming for everyone. I want to hear from my neighbors—your concerns, your ideas—because together, we can turn our frustrations into real solutions. It’s time for action, and I’m ready to get to work!

Meet Sabrina Gonzalez

Hello, I’m Sabrina Gonzalez, a proud lifelong resident of Lorain’s 5th Ward. My roots run deep in this community—my grandparents arrived from Puerto Rico in the late 1940s to work in the steel mill, and since then, my family has continued to grow and thrive right here in Lorain.

I graduated from Southview High School in 1997 and later pursued my certification to become a licensed insurance agent at LCCC in 2023. While I’ve always been committed to helping people, I’ve recently been paying even closer attention to the everyday challenges in our city.

From potholes and speeding cars to broken sidewalks and unsafe pedestrian crossings, I see the struggles our community faces daily. Whether it’s watching residents in wheelchairs forced into the street during winter or seeing families risk their safety just to cross the road, I know these are issues that demand real, common-sense solutions—and I’m ready to get to work.

I believe in action over excuses. When I hear “no,” I don’t stop—I find another way. I know Lorain can be a better, safer, and more connected place for all of us. The solutions are out there, and I’m determined to help bring them to life.

Together, let’s make Lorain a city that works for everyone.
