Introductions
You deserve to know who I am, what I've accomplished and what you can expect of me when I'm elected
El Camino Real - Hard decisions are be made - is this the right council
Blight along El Camino Real from Atherton to Palo Alto is the number one issue in this campaign.
City Budget - Time to act is NOW
Over the past two years the current city council has used money from the General Fund (rainy day fund) to balance the current budgets. Two years ago the General Fund contained $36 million. Today it contains $25 million. That's a 30% reduction!
