Issues
Growth: Shape Growth with Intention
Post Falls is growing fast—but we don’t have to grow carelessly. Marc Lucca will fight for development that reflects our community’s character, protects our neighborhoods, and plans wisely for the next generation. No more rushed approvals, drab design, or one-size-fits-all zoning. It’s time to grow with purpose.
Safety: Protect What Matters Most
As a former deputy sheriff, Marc Lucca knows what it takes to keep communities safe. He’ll fight to retain trained officers in Post Falls, prioritize public safety funding, and ensure families feel secure in their homes, schools, and neighborhoods.
Control Spending: Every Dollar with Purpose
Marc Lucca will keep city spending focused on essential services...public safety, infrastructure, and community priorities. He’ll guard against creeping costs, resist unnecessary fees, and champion disciplined budgeting to keep Post Falls strong and solvent.
Family First: Preserve What Makes us Strong:
Marc Lucca will champion policies that reflect the values of Post Falls families...safe parks, respectful public spaces, and family-friendly events. He’ll protect children from inappropriate content in public venues and ensure our city remains a place where faith, patriotism, and neighborly respect drive our decisions.
My Beliefs
I believe government exists to serve the people - not the other way around. Its role is to protect individual rights, enforce laws fairly, and ensure transparency in how public resources are used. In short, our rights come from God, and government's job is to protect those rights.
My whole political life has been based on restoring our constitutional republic, a system designed to safeguard liberty through checks and balances—not majority rule alone. So I believe in a limited government and empowered citizens.
I fully support the First Amendment, including the right to speak, worship, and petition without government coercion or punishment. I am a strong supporter of the Second Amendment as a cornerstone of personal liberty and community safety. Lawfare, or the weaponizing of the legal system for political ends, is always wrong as it undermines equal protection and erodes trust. Every citizen deserves fair treatment under the law, regardless of ideology.
Locally, I oppose the use of eminent domain for government's development schemes. It should only ever be for legitimate public need, and only when all other options are exhausted. Our property rights are foundational.
In Post Falls, overdevelopment, especially without design standards, risks turning our city into Anywhere, USA. We must preserve North Idaho’s character while managing growth with intention - not haste. That means Urban Renewal Districts should be used carefully, so as not to show favoritism or allow development to shift costs to the taxpayers. High-density zoning should be used sparingly, so we can ensure that infrastructure keeps pace with population.
I support low taxes, and oppose policies that drive the need to increase them. Growth should pay for itself over time, not saddle longtime residents with rising costs and traffic congestion. We must budget with discipline, prioritize public safety, and invest in durable infrastructure...not just vanity projects.
On cultural issues, I reject divisive ideologies like critical race theory and DEI that sort people by race or identity, acting as a cover for institutionalized bias. I oppose sexually explicit materials being available to children...anywhere...and won't allow it in our city. Youth deserve protection, not politicization or corruption by adult profiteers...especially when it comes to irreversible life decisions, privacy in restrooms and changing areas, and the protection of girls' sports. I am also unashamedly pro-life, from conception to natural death.
Post Falls has been growing fast. We need leaders who will steward our growth with respect both for the people who built this community, and those who have only recently arrived with hope for a better life for their families. I’m running to ensure our future reflects our values of Faith, Family, and Freedom, and I would be honored to earn your vote.
May God bless Post Falls, the State of Idaho, and our great American Republic.
