1. What are your views regarding the need for public transportation in your community to promote access to employment throughout the region?
|
Answer from Walter T. St Clair:
St. Bernard has intracity transportation. To promote regional employment access, a joint venture between the employer and the regional transit authority would be most appropriate.
2. Would you be in favor of county-wide campaign finance regulations that would provide for public matching funds, limit campaign contributions and provide for more disclosure? State your opinions on these ideas; whether you would support or oppose them.
|
Answer from Walter T. St Clair:
I oppose the use of public funds for campaigns and the limiting of contributions. I support a simple public disclosure of names and amounts.
3. What are the benefits/detriments to land use planning prior to zoning decisions?
|
Answer from Walter T. St Clair:
Planning is always beneficial before making decisions.
