Candidate for
Councilmember; City of San Luis Obispo

Why I became a candidate for SLO City Council

I decided to become a Council candidate because we must address a number of issues in order to ensure our city's long-term health. I believe I am well qualified to do so.

My immediate concerns are for the financial future of San Luis Obispo and for the future of the city's many unique neighborhoods + especially the older well-established ones.

Recent events have caused a fraying of the long-established relationship between Cal Poly and the City -+ serious for both residents and city leadership.

Couple the above with the financial stress many young families and small businesses face in these still challenging economic times, and we have a potentially serious situation. We must adequately address these if our city is to remain a great place to live and work.

Decades of military leadership experience, service on two San Luis Obispo County Grand Juries, three terms on the County's Juvenile Justice Commission, and many years as a Director/Treasurer of the Rev. M.L. King Scholarship Fund give me the broad background and skills needed for City Council. I will be honored to represent you and will do so in a financially responsible manner.

Please cast your vote for Mike Clark for City Council.
