Candidate for
City Council; City of Santa Ana; Ward 1

Dear Neighbor,

As a husband, parent, homeowner, and Planning Commissioner, I am proud to have played a part in the positive changes in our city...crime is down, home values are up and we are making major investments in our streets.

While we can point to this progress with pride, much remains to be done.

I will use my education, including a Masters Degree in Public Policy from Harvard, as well as a solid background in business and government, to address important issues.

-- Education: I actively supported the Measure to build more schools in Santa Ana. As your Councilman, I will work with the School District to find the right school sites and create positive, safe learning environments.

-- Public Safety: A city thrives when its residents feel safe. Reducing crime and fighting gangs and drug use will be priorities.

-- Neighborhoods: Safe, clean streets and parks improve our quality of life. I will work to do more for our neighborhoods!

After reviewing my background and stand on numerous issues, Governor Gray Davis recently appointed me to our Regional Water Quality Board.

Please feel free to contact me at (714) 396-3444 or e-mail me at jose@josesolorio.com regarding these issues or other issues which are also important to you.

Sincerely,

Jose Solorio
