We're In This Together

By Barbara Barb Stanton

Candidate for Member, Town Council; Town of Apple Valley

This information is provided by the candidate
It is time to return to basics. Create good paying jobs. Police and fire protection must be maintained. Stay out of private sector business.
I am a 21 year resident that supports Transparent, Ethical and Accountable government. Through my career as a broadcaster and journalist I have been engaged in town politics for years. As a mother and a grandmother I am concerned about our next generation's future.

Essential Issues are:

  • A safe community that supports its police and fire protection.
  • Creating an environment where private sector job creation and growth are recognized as fundamental to a prosperous community.
  • Maintain the quality of life in our housing sector.

BARB STANTON will not support town government competing with private business using taxpayer money.

BARB STANTON will LIMIT TAXES in Apple Valley and movie forward in a responsible manner

BARB STANTON will listen to CITIZENS FIRST and be your representative. .

WE should not be subsidizing a Country Club/restaurant that competes with private sector businesses at a cost of more than $60,000 per month. `This is backward thinking and must be corrected'

 We have recently begun shutting down our fire stations; Yucca Loma at Apple Valley Road station is now being used for STORAGE!

 Our population has swelled and yet we have hired no new police officers, and our fire department has lost eight firemen.

 Prisons, a Juvenile Detention Center, the San Bernardino County Jail, and group homes are now part of the landscape in Apple Valley and the high desert, with a Re-Entry Center planned for Apple Valley, and more to come.

 We must raise the bar and add additional police officers. At the current level I'm concerned about the quality of life for our citizens...we must live safely and without fear.

 Neighbors must be informed of the residents in Group Homes in their area.

A vote for BARBARA `BARB' STANTON is a vote for common sense. I have the courage and the character to represent you. I will be a strong advocate for every citizen and each business, and view each and every issue with clarity and fairness.
