What local leaders are saying about Jerry Deal.

By Jerry L Deal

Local leaders respect Jerry Deal

"...What he (Jerry) has accomplished with Design Review is to control the rampant building of "spec" homes by outside developers, which don't fit into the character of our Burlingame neighborhoods."
-Denise M. Baggiani

"...Burlingame is faced with many challenges in the coming years...as residents we have to ask ourselves; is the status quo system of cronyism which exists in Burlingame today OK, or do we want new, dynamic, independent council members like Deal...leading us into the new millennium?"
-John & Ellen Hunter

"...Jerry Deal cares about the City of Burlingame. He has shown this over and over during his tenure on the Planning Commission. (This is why) Jerry has the support of the 5 Planning Commissioners not running for city council."
-David Luzuriaga, Vice Chair, Burlingame Planning Commission
-Ann Keighran, Burlingame Planning Commissioner
-Joe Bojues, Burlingame Planning Commissioner
-Stan Vistica, Secretary, Burlingame Planning Commission
-Martin Dreiling, Burlingame Planning Commission

"...officials who stood up to Saks and did not allow the 5th Avenue store to run all over the city were Jerry Deal on the planning commission... We were impressed by (Deal's) questions and concern for all the merchants on Burlingame Avenue. (Deal) looked after the interests of the city and is to be commended.."
