Questions & Answers

1. What experience related to city government would you bring to the City Council?

I've attended over 70 city council meetings, and over 100 committee meetings. I am able to bring new ideas and technology to make our government work more efficiently.

2. San Jose budget difficulties have resulted in unprecedented cuts to staff and services. How will you deal with coming shortfalls? Restoring some of the City services? And, if you think the City needs additional resources, what are your ideas for increasing revenues?

We have to allow for adequate business and residential growth in our town. This will generate added revenue to the city budget.

3. What concerns are of particular importance to the city and how would you address them?

Public Safety and Growth are the two biggest issues in the city.

4. How would you balance the needs of the City as a whole while also addressing needs of your district as well as those of special groups?

I ignore the special groups and represent the people.

5. How much money do you expect to raise/spend on your race, and how will you assure voters that financial contributions will not affect your decisions/positions should you be elected?

I expect to raise $20,000 and no financial contribution will ever affect my decision and position.
