Los Alamitos has a unique small town atmosphere and charm which is one of the reasons we all live here. As your Council representative, I will work to preserve the quality of life we enjoy for future generations, by assuring continued public safety programs; working with the Los Alamitos Unified School District in maintaining our blue ribbon schools; developing a strong sense of community and pride; and with the ongoing 405-605 Freeway expansion projects, to assure we watch out for the best interests of our citizens and businesses.

I want to see improved youth involvement in local government and programs for our seniors enhanced. I will listen to your concerns and repesent you in an open and transparent manner.

There are economic challenges facing Los Alamitos, in today's difficult environment. We need to attract more jobs and businesses to Los Alamitos. This will help increase revenue for our City's operating budget. I have a vision to see the 13.5 acre parcial where our City Hall is located becoming a thriving, property tax and sales tax producing site. I've spoken about this in the past and a plan needs to be put in place to vacate that property from local government use to retail.

We must continue to monitor fiscal spending controls in the city budget to ensure the cost-efficient use of our financial resources.

As a small business owner for 33 years, I have the operational and financial skills to contribute and enhance my role as a Council Member. I will seek increased tax generating businesses and ensure proper use of City resources to benefit all residents.

My commitment and passion for our community is unwavering!

I humbly ask for your support and vote on Nov. 6th.
