A: https://www.darby4de.com/accomplishments My accomplishments show that I am innovative, community centered, and willing to do the work.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Community benefit agreements: Community representatives do need to have a meaningful seat at the table during the key stages of project development. The community should be able to negotiate directly with developers for the benefits most important to them. Community engagement should be a huge factor in granting zoning, permits, etc.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: It is important to build a strong, sustainable economy that benefits all residents. 1. Expand broadband connectivity to all in the city 2. Train and retain a knowledge-based workforce for city jobs- Partnerships with local high schools and colleges 3. More connected and types of transportation: i.e. shareable bikes and scooters 4.

Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: The mayor & city council needs to understand that the administrative and judicial branch are equal. The mayor can not be a bully and dictator and then expect not to be held accountable. The mayor should be opened to working with all councilmembers even if they do not political align with them. The leadership on council and for the mayor should have a clear lines of communication and relaying information. There needs to be a process created that will help both sides interpret and apply laws, settle disputes between each other, and protect the rights of each branch. Along with that City Council also needs its own law department that is not connected to the mayor.

Work Experience: Christian applies her skills and experience in urban planning and community economic development to make Wilmington’s neighborhoods better places to live, raise a family, and have a business. As Director of Cornerstone West CDC, she organized with residents, houses of worship, and community organizations to launch West Side Grows. For more than six years, she worked with many of you to engage residents in designing new playgrounds, build and renovate affordable housing, re-design streets for pedestrian safety, advocate for community policing, and expand opportunities for youth. Then, as the first Executive Director of the Wilmington Land Bank, she worked with residents to create programs that reflected community priorities and brought Wilmington’s vacant properties back into use. Today, she leads a consulting business that helps non-profit organizations secure the funding and professional services they need to achieve their mission.

Q: What are the most urgent issues in Wilmington at this time?
A: 5th District residents have told Christian that community safety, housing affordability, safer streets, and programs for children and youth are their most urgent issues. As your Council Member, Christian will work for an all-hands-on-deck approach to improving community safety to reduce gun violence, address addiction, and save lives. Christian believes that offering our youth better opportunities should be prioritized as a key strategy for reducing violence, including investing in after-school and summer programs, expanded access to jobs and job training, and better educational opportunities for city youth so they can thrive and achieve their potential.
Q: What are your qualifications for office? Can you provide examples of past experiences or accomplishments that demonstrate your ability to effectively lead and collaborate with others in a governmental setting?
A: Christian has been living, working and making a difference in the 5th District for over 15 years. As a member of Wilmington City Council’s Fines and Fees Task Force, Christian successfully worked with representatives from both the community and Council to develop a report and recommendations for reform that was approved by Council. Christian also served on the Rodney Reservoir Advisory Committee appointed by the Mayor. The Rodney Reservoir Advisory Committee supported broad community engagement in the design of the future Rodney Reservoir Park, which resulted in more than $2 million investment from the state of Delaware and is now under construction.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Wilmington’s growth is the product of policy choices. Christian believes that the benefits of our city’s growth should be widely shared. With the right policy mix, Wilmington can promote inclusive growth, where people of all income levels can be part of the City’s future. As your City Councilperson, Christian will work hard to put in place today the policies we need to make sure that current residents can afford to stay if they want to and be part of the positive change. These policies include requiring a portion of new developments that receive city subsidies include units that are affordable to people with regular jobs, rent stabilization, and local hire provisions for projects that are subsidized or contracted by the City.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: Small business is the engine of economic growth. In addition, small and locally-owned businesses are much more likely to hire locally. As a Member of Council, Christian will work to expand Wilmington’s support for small businesses and explore ways to promote local entrepreneurship, including reforming Wilmington’s business licensing fee structure which recently increased the annual license fee for many small businesses. Christian also will work to expand local procurement by Wilmington City government and support the residency requirement for city jobs.
Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: Achieving positive impact together is the best way that City Council and the Mayor can improve their relationship. Christian is committed to listening to and learning from everyone, including the Mayor, city staff, other Council members, and residents. People don’t always agree or see things the same way. Christian sees this as a strength of our democratic system of government. Christian believes that ideas get better when more people have the chance to provide input. Christian will work respectfully and collaboratively to develop policies that can promote the sustainability of the City and improve the lives of residents.

Q: What are the most urgent issues in Wilmington at this time?
A: Having lived, worked, and volunteered in Wilmington for many years now, I am all too familiar with the major problems that plague our neighborhoods including lack of job opportunities, the opioid epidemic, and underperforming public schools. To turn the tide on crime and economic stagnation, we have to continue to double down on neighborhood stabilization, focusing on housing and economic opportunities. Right now, there are too many barriers to success for middle and lower-class families. I aim to continue to empower my neighbors by rebuilding civic associations, improving community-police relationships, designating the 7th as a business improvement district, and increasing affordable housing opportunities.
Q: What are your qualifications for office? Can you provide examples of past experiences or accomplishments that demonstrate your ability to effectively lead and collaborate with others in a governmental setting?
A: As the current Chair of City Council’s Finance & Economic Development Committee, I have had a key leadership role in helping to stabilize and grow the City in the wake of a once in a lifetime economic downturn due to the pandemic. Wilmington has come back better and stronger than ever. I am a proud graduate of the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics at the University of Delaware and the Delaware Law School at Widener University. Earlier in my career, as an Assistant City Solicitor, I represented the City of Wilmington and its employees in complex litigation matters in District Court and Supreme Court. I am also a proud small business owner of a Wilmington law firm where I specialize in family law & civil rights litigation.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Responsible and inclusive growth, requires listening to the impacted community and balancing the needs of commercial growth with the rights of residents. Prior to zoning decisions being made, each and every affected resident should be invited to chime in on shaping project to fit into the community. During my time leading the Westside, I have been insistent that each and every major project, including the Flats affordable housing project, take the needs and concerns of residents as the number one priority. If Wilmington continues to strike this careful balance, we will ensure that we have opportunities for all residents and businesses alike.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: Growing new jobs in Wilmington requires doubling down on what has led to previous economic growth in the City. As a City we have to be not only have to be attractive to businesses and corporations, but we have to continue to encourage the small, minority, and women-owned businesses that form the great tapestry that is Wilmington. Having a mix of both large and small businesses, and supporting their diverse needs, will allow Wilmington to grow from the bottom-up and stabilize our middle class neighborhoods. As a City should also continue to investment in workforce development programs in the City, as attracting and keeping top talent in the City will take us to even great heights.
Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: City Council and the Mayor’s Office has a history of division, and these issues stem from what is happening in our national discourse. As a member of the Democratic Party, I take a stand against division. If you know me then you know that I stand opposed to shouting matches, feuds, and the cancel culture. In City Council, I am always looking for what unites the City rather than what divides us. I believe that honey is a lot more effective than vinegar. That’s why I am always trying to find common ground with the Mayor’s Office rather than division. Progress is easily undone if reformers do not win support. I employ a strong but diplomatic approach to dealing with political adversaries, which breeds cohesion and efficiency within City Hall.
At-large council members serve four year terms and focus on their specific committee objectives and general constituents concerns. Four at-large seats are available to be filled, but each voter may vote for only three candidates. All City of Wilmington offices are elected at the same time, in the “on-years” when the Delaware governor and U.S. President are up for election.

Q: What are the most urgent issues in Wilmington at this time?
A: Strong economy: Wilmington must invest in building quality jobs and ensure our residents are prepared for those jobs when they come. Safe communities: Our residents deserve to feel safe. We need a violence reduction plan and we can only get there by working with communities and partners. Affordable housing: We have to build more affordable housing units and we have to build them quicker by removing unnecessary regulations and streamlining approval. Effective Government: City Council plays a vital role in improving the life of Wilmington residents. Government should work for the people it serves and should be committed to constant community engagement.
Q: What are your qualifications for office? Can you provide examples of past experiences or accomplishments that demonstrate your ability to effectively lead and collaborate with others in a governmental setting?
A: I am qualified because I have been doing the job. In December 2022, I was appointed to complete the term of the late Councilwoman Loretta Walsh. Prior to my time on council, I spent over two decades in politics and government leading projects focused on economic development, bringing federal investment to Delaware, and helping families find jobs and opportunities for educational advancement. Since my time on Council, I have led initiatives to provide additional funding for affordable housing, reformed Wilmington’s booting and towing practices, and supported efforts to help our residents start successful small businesses.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Government works for the residents that it represents. Wilmington is expecting a declining budget while our residents are facing challenges. Economic development can be done responsibly and I am uniquely positioned to ensure this happens. Our new and existing business must invest in the City. Government must work with businesses to have strategic investment in every part of Wilmington. Additionally, residents must help inform the types of investments that are needed.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: There is no shortage of jobs available in Wilmington. Wilmington is facing a gap between the jobs that are available and the skills of our residents. We must partner with workforce development programs to provide our residents the skills necessary to be prepared for the available jobs. This is not enough because we must also ensure we are teaching residents transferable skills and matching our workforce development training with jobs of the future. To help grow new jobs we must invest in creating more small businesses. There is commercial space available that we must revamp and allow our local entrepreneurs the ability to access. We must invest in our small businesses as much as we do in attracting large companies to Wilmington.
Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: There are two branches of government in Wilmington and they act as a check and balance on each other. The city council and the mayor are both tasked with representing Wilmington residents. The relationship between the two branches will work when both are connected with the residents and know where they stand on the issues. Residents can only truly be involved when the government is transparent and provides all information available. Once the government engages residents it will create alignment and truly a shared purpose. However, no two sides will alway agree and simple disagreements should not be seen as a strained relationship, but rather the essence of debate and democracy.

Q: What are the most urgent issues in Wilmington at this time?
A: 1. Neighborhood Stabilization: This is key for crime reduction and increasing housing stock. This includes accessible infrastructure. 2. Housing Availability and Affordability: Increasing inventory and ensuring safe, and affordable homes in all neighborhoods. 3. Crime Reduction: Although Wilmington has seen a significant drop in shootings and homicides, until we eliminate all instances, we need to be all hands on deck! 4. Youth Development Centers/Activities: Now more than ever our youth need resources to assist them with learning, as well extra curricular activities. In addition, skill & career development for those who may not be equipped for higher education. Our children need to have alternatives and places to go vs the streets.
Q: What are your qualifications for office? Can you provide examples of past experiences or accomplishments that demonstrate your ability to effectively lead and collaborate with others in a governmental setting?
A: First be humble & kind. Prior to being elected as Councilwoman in 2012, I’ve actively served the community for over three decades as a volunteer on over 35 boards/organizations. I understand the importance of compromising & working together for the greater good. My public service began in the office of Cultural Affairs under Mayor Sills. In previous council leadership roles, and now as CC Pres Pro-Tem & Chair of Community Dev. I have successfully collaborated with both my colleagues & administration to passed legislation that is helping stabilize neighborhoods, increase affordable housing, and reduce crime. Including a fair way to reduce parking fines. Leadership is not self proclaimed. You become a leader when others chose to follow you.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Our residents should always be the priority! The commercial growth in Wilmington should offer opportunities for everyone to grow. Commercial growth offers employment and career growth opportunities, as well as an investment in Wilmington’s future. Increasing our tax base allows for the city to continue to invest in our housing and neighborhoods, including our parks and City funded resources that benefit ALL residents. That includes the funding that provides assistance for the water utility, eliminating property tax for seniors, and most importantly repurposing our vacant housing stock to create affordable housing, and stabilize our neighborhoods. Utilize Neighborhood agreements to ensure the interests of our residents are prioritized.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: Continue to invest in neighborhood stabilization. As Wilmington becomes more attractive as a livable, walkable and user friendly city, new employers will be drawn to bring their businesses and employees to Wilmington. Invest in future employees by making sure everyone, especially our residents, all have an opportunity to participate. This includes internships, workforce development, certification and education to better prepare our residents. In addition, reducing recidivism by making sure everyone has the same equal opportunity to prepare and participate.
Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: First, being respectful towards each other and respecting the powers that both offices hold. The people in both branches of government are public servants, whether elected, appointed or employees. The priority should always be to do what is best for the residents of Wilmington. This can be achieved with more open communication and respectful dialogue. We can agree to disagree, however doing so respectfully. Always remembering the example that is being set, and observed by the public and young impressionable future leaders. Show more kindness and try to see things from both points of view. Never forgetting why we got elected in the first place. It truly is a privilege to serve, not an entitlement!

Q: What are the most urgent issues in Wilmington at this time?
A: The most urgent issues in Wilmington are deeply personal to me as my family and I navigate them daily: Economic Development, Quality Education, Affordable Housing, and Public Safety. Through my work with the Economic Development Administration, I’ve seen how strategic investments create jobs and stimulate our local economy, positively affecting families. As a former Assistant Dean of Students, I understand how quality education can change lives. Affordable housing is essential, and everyone deserves a safe home. Crime and public safety are pressing concerns for our community. These issues impact our friends, families, and future, and addressing them is essential for Wilmington’s strength and prosperity.
Q: What are your qualifications for office? Can you provide examples of past experiences or accomplishments that demonstrate your ability to effectively lead and collaborate with others in a governmental setting?
A: I am a proud graduate of Delaware State University, one of the top HBCUs in the nation. At the Economic Development Administration, I helped deploy $4.6 billion across the U.S., fostering economic growth and job creation. As an entrepreneur, I co-founded Community Staffing Agency, creating over 200 jobs annually to support Wilmington schools. My commitment to education is unwavering, having taught and mentored students. As the director of Community Cares, I serve over 20,000 families yearly through toy drives, back-to-school events, Easter egg hunts, and trunk-or-treats. These experiences showcase my leadership and ability to collaborate effectively, driving tangible improvements for our community.
Q: How will you balance the rights of residents with the commercial growth underway in Wilmington?
A: Balancing the needs of Wilmington’s residents with commercial growth means involving the community in planning and decision-making. We need to make sure that new developments don’t harm our neighborhoods. This includes enforcing zoning rules that keep residential areas protected and ensuring new projects improve infrastructure and provide affordable housing. By working closely with both residents and developers, we can guide growth that benefits everyone. Clear communication and transparency are key to making sure that progress aligns with the needs and values of our community.
Q: What can Wilmington do to grow new jobs in the city?
A: Creating new jobs in Wilmington is a mission I’m passionate about. From my experience with the Economic Development Administration, I’ve seen how targeted investments in education and workforce development can transform communities. We need strong partnerships between local businesses, schools, and government to offer training and apprenticeship programs tailored to our industries. Supporting small businesses and startups with grants and streamlined processes can spark innovation. Focusing on sectors like technology, healthcare, and green energy will diversify our economy and attract new employers.
Q: How could the city council and mayor improve their relationships?
A: Getting city council and mayor on the same page is key to making real progress for Wilmington. From my experience in various government roles, I know that open communication and mutual respect go a long way. We need regular meetings and open forums where both sides can share their priorities and concerns. It’s important that the mayor and city council work together smoothly so we can tackle issues efficiently and get things done for our community. Clear guidelines for resolving conflicts will also help keep things on track. By aligning our efforts and staying engaged with residents, we can create a government that truly works for Wilmington.
