He wants to tackle local issues
The representative hopes to tackle a variety of issues that have been impacting the community, with a focus on local water quality and studies.
Specifically, Truenow has filed a bill that would allow for a study of Little Wekiva River, where sediment accumulation and water quality would be measured. He has also filed several bills for the 2021 legislative session that would work to improve drinking water systems for Groveland and Monteverde, as well as improving wastewater treatment facilities throughout the area.
Truenow is also a co-sponsor on a bill that would allow counties to create boards comprised of qualified volunteers to investigate situations of alleged retaliatory conduct by landlords against tenants - and to impose fines if necessary. This bill was inspired by Marie Wissler, a Leesburg woman who says her apartment complex retaliated against her after she reported issues to code enforcement.
