Background

Meet Aurang Zeb

Aurang Zeb, a Pakistani immigrant who moved to Lincoln in 2003, flips houses and runs a painting company. He ran unsuccessfully for a seat on the Lincoln Airport Authority board in 2019.

Aurang Zeb thinks Lincoln is a great place to live for so many people, but we still face many challenges. He wants to be a voice for those facing the toughest of those challenges.

In an interview with 1011now, Aurang Zeb said "Once elected, I will be a champion for affordable housing, local businesses, strong healthcare and adequately funded infrastructure, especially roads."

He further told "I think the city needs to slow down its efforts to aggressively match local market values. Our property taxes are skyrocketing, and it’s becoming difficult for new homeowners and renters to get a foothold in our community. In the long term, that will lead to fewer residents and less property taxes being paid."
