Protecting Families

Whittier crime rates continue to be low. Our new police station with its modern facilities is providing the kind of protection our citizens deserve. Also, we've taken important steps to ensure a clean water supply and instituted the Safe Route to School sidewalk program for our kids.

Promoting Prosperity

The new Whittwood Town Center has been a great success, and we are working to revitalize Uptown.

We need to continue encouraging vigorous economic development and better shopping opportunities for our residents. That includes working hard to make sure that the former Nelles and Alpha Beta properties are developed in ways that add value to the city and benefit surrounding neighborhoods.

Preserving Values

With over 20 years of service to our community, I'm committed to protecting the unique character of our town. I have fought alongside many others to restore Pio Pico Adobe, build a beautiful new Senior Center at Parnell Park and guide the Greenway Trail to completion.

With your support, I will continue to steer us into the future guided by the solid values of our past.
