Candidate's Statement about Claremont Issues

By Larry Schroeder

Candidate for Council Member; City of Claremont

This information is provided by the candidate
Thank you for the privilege of serving on the Claremont City Council for the last four years. As a retired City Finance Director, with a Doctorate Degree in Public Administration, and experience teaching public finance and budgeting at the university level, I have tried to contribute my expertise to the City Council.

During my first term on the Claremont City Council, we made great strides to better Claremont. However, there is more to do. I appreciate your vote as we continue to:
- fight to CONTROL EXCESSIVE WATER RATES by whatever means necessary, including acquisition of the water system in Claremont;
- take appropriate actions to SUSTAIN BALANCED BUDGETS;
- MAINTAIN PUBLIC SAFETY and support our Police Department;
- CONTROL PUBLIC RETIREMENT COSTS;
- negotiate fair and SUSTAINABLE LABOR CONTRACTS;
- DEVELOP APPROPRIATE RETAIL to meet our Community's shopping, job, and revenue needs;
- MAINTAIN OUR STREETS and other infrastructure;
- INCREASE AND PROTECT OUR OPEN SPACE while preserving the ability of nearby residents to access and enjoy their property;
- PROTECT OUR HERITAGE of trees, historic homes, and parks; and
- SUPPORT SENIOR SERVICES.

Together, we can continue to make a better Claremont.
