Statement of DAVID CLANCY, Candidate for
Member, San Jose City Council, District 1
Occupation: Commercial Real Estate Broker Age: 30
Education and Qualifications:
Like many of you, I feel that government has failed us from Washington to the City Council of San Jose. Pay for San Jose city workers has increased nearly 64% in the last nine years. These salary increases, pension liabilities and reckless spending policies have brought a fiscal crisis to San Jose. As a fifth generation native of the Bay Area, a graduate of SDSU, and a San Jose business owner in District 1, I will bring a fresh perspective to the City Council. I have refused special interest support and am therefore uniquely unencumbered by political liabilities. If I am elected I pledge to vote against new taxes and fees and insist upon a deficit neutral city budget. I will fight to streamline the permit and application requirements to make San Jose more 'business friendly' to return jobs and opportunity to our great city. I look forward to bringing a much needed business perspective to the San Jose City Council and working to resolve the current budget crisis.
