Position Papers
Town Center Redevelopment Project
We should take a long hard look at our Town Center redevelopment project and assess the real benefits to our community. In addition to the existing landscape and architectural plans, we need a marketing plan and an economic development plan before we spend millions of taxpayer dollars.
Yorba Linda Needs More Athletic & Recreational Facilities
Our athletic fields are maxed out. An increase of at least 3000 housing units will occur in the next two to three years. That means around 7500 more residents. We need to answer with more recreational and athletic space for our children.
Traffic & Trains
We need to move forward with certain street and infrastructure improvements to alleviate congestion and maintain our quality of life in Yorba Linda.
