1. Did you support Measure F in November 2005? If not, please discuss the adequacy of Sierra Madre's volunteer fire and EMT services.
Yes. I supported Measure F and was part of the committee that worked for its approval.2. How can Sierra Madre best achieve the goal of hillside preservation?
The current ordinance does not provide the opportunities to maintain the hillsides that are compatable with wishes of many citizens. By rewritng it, it will allow more checks and balances to be established.3. Which of the following sources of revenue would you favor to avoid a budget shortfall in Sierra Madre: parcel tax; utility tax; assessment district; leasing of water services?
It is not what I would favor that is important, but the majority of voters will support. With the amount of money that has been taken away for local use since 1996, we must find creative solutions to solve both the short term and long term fiscal problems. But it can't be done in a vaccum void of community input.This entails that all voters in the city become more informed about the options that are availalbe. They then need to express those opinions in person or by writng the city council members about their positions.
