I'm Concerned

By Barbara Barb Stanton

Purchasing a Country Club and studies on a Baseball Stadium are draining the town budget. I will fight to limit taxes for our citizens.

Through my career as a broadcaster and journalist I arose to form the Save Our Country Meeting, (SOC) and the first High Desert Tea Party.

Essential campaign Issues are:

• A senior and family safe community that maintains police and fire protection
• Jobs creation and growth
• Maintain the quality of life in our housing sector
• Government should not be in private business

• I support water conservation and limited landscaping on town projects.
• Group Home oversight, which requires police and neighborhood notification.

Apple Valley deserves the Best Way of Life.

A vote for Barbara 'Barb' Stanton represents a vote for LIMITING TAXES in Apple Valley and moving forward in a responsible manner.

Apple Valley should not be entering into private sector business. We are spending more than $60,000 a month on the Apple Valley Country Club WHILE OUR FIRE AND POLICE PROTECTION STRUGGLES TO MAINTAIN SERVICES! This is backward thinking and must be corrected. I fully support public safety and public safety first before Country Clubs!

We have recently begun shutting down our fire stations; Yucca Loma at Apple Valley Rd. 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.

I have concerns regarding the quality of life for our citizens...will we live safely and without fear?

Encouraging and assisting businesses, including small businesses, to prosper in Apple Valley is extremely important. We need good paying jobs for our citizens.

A vote for 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.

I ask our absentee voters to mark their ballots and mail immediately.

Thank you so much!
