Wendy Anderson believes that Volusia County Council should prioritize the needs of Volusia families, first responders, and neighborhoods over special interests, political parties, and personal priorities. This means addressing the brutal facts regardless of the difficulties and acting on them in the best interest of Volusia residents. Wendy is your advocate for responsible budgeting and stronger public services, a return to core government responsibilities, and ensuring our communities come first—every time!

Agriculture is a vital part of Volusia’s heritage, culture, and its future. Wendy Anderson will protect our working lands, support local farmers, and champion policies that keep agriculture economically viable for the next generation. By investing in sustainable practices, cutting red tape, and defending property rights, she’ll ensure Volusia remains a place where farming families can thrive. 

Wendy believes that Volusia’s growth should not only strengthen our economy but also increase our quality of life and preserve our environment.  She advocates for attracting better paying jobs, expanding small business initiatives, and investing in workforce training opportunities—while also addressing concerns like flooding and protecting our natural resources to avoid unchecked sprawl. Much of the conversation by other candidates this election cycle will be about development while little thought will be given to redevelopment. By focusing on common sense and sustainable growth practices—redeveloping existing communities, enhancing infrastructure, and preserving Volusia’s unique character—Wendy will make Volusia Couny more reslient for its residents to thrive and live out their American Dream.
