Questions & Answers

1. How should the City of Santa Clarita maintain a balance between its unique environment and its need for development?

Reduce overall density of new development and make sure there is infrastructure so that schools do not become more crowded, roads more crowded, etc. The Santa Clara River and the surrounding mountain greenbelt must be protected and brought into public ownership. The city needs to acquire more open space - we are 900+ acres short of park space.

2. How can the City of Santa Clarita best secure an acceptable standard of public safety?

The city is currently adding more police and actively fighting grafitti and gangs. I support the current policies.

3. What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a city election in April of the even-numbered years? Do you favor continuing the practice?

The election should be held in November to reduce cost and increase voter participation.
