Questions & Answers

1. Do you think the proposed LNG facility should be built in Long Beach Harbor? If elected, what actions would you take to support your position?

This project will bring Jobs to Long Beach, i.e. Construction, maintenance, security. Work with ALL concerned to complete this project.

2. Should Long Beach airport be expanded? If so, to what degree, and what improvements and enhancements would be essential? Under what circumstances, if any, should the number of available flight slots be increased?

YES! We need this airport. I don't like driving to LAX or John Wayne. Traffic is heavy enough on our freeway today. WE MUST Expand in order to grow. We can ship goods via Air. We should build parking structures to house 2000 cars away from the eye of the folks around the airport. This way the rental cars will not be seen by the golf complex, i.e. Dallas, Texas

3. What should Long Beach be doing to improve air quality?

WE Must Clean up the air in and around the harbor. I drove the streets and I get black soot on my car, boat, and I breathe that stuff. I got it on my clothes and our WHITE tents in the harbor are now black. WE MUST CLEAN THIS UP. There has got to be a better and cleaner method to replace the uses of COAL!
