Candidate for
Council Member; City of Cloverdale

My goal is to improve our "quality of life." I will work hard to:

Improve our "quality of life; Preserve our hillsides; keep the casino out of Cloverdale; promote and develop a healthy business environment in the downtown corridor; bring quality youth and senior programs online; build strong police, fire and emergency health services; adopt urban growth boundaries; identify and attempt to resolve community concerns over traffic related issues; develop a long range economic plan to improve services and ensure that the city stays on path to fiscal stability; develop a strategic plan to address current and future city water and sewer needs; provide more policy direction to staff to make sure city government is responsive to community needs.

What I love most about Cloverdale is the small town that it is. I support smart growth, oppose sprawl, and promote open space. I do not support development on our hillsides. I support pedestrian-friendly development, combining residential and commercial uses, in the downtown core.
