- Water
-
Water availability will be one of our County's most important issues for some time to come. We need a First District Supervisor who will provide leadership in bringing all the competing interests to the table and developing solutions that everyone can buy into. I will bring integrity, creativity, and diplomacy to this difficult issue.
- County Inefficiency
-
Everyone knows that our County government is broke, but the bigger problem is that our County government is broken.
- Public Participation
-
The First District needs a Supervisor who will open up County government to greater public involvement. The public has a difficult time simply following the actions of County government, let alone influencing them. And the First District has endured vacancies on key boards and commissions for months and years.
