Position Papers
Preserve and maintain our coastline and agricultural land.
Our city's general plan identifies these and other goals; I would continue to advocate adherence to this visionary document.
Mitigate the impact of the Highway 101 in Motion project
Ensuring protection of our wetlands and nature trails and providing access to our local businesses is a priority for me.
Promote resource neutral/green business as well as our small mom-and-pop businesses.
As a Council member I would be able to use my position to promote businesses that are green (i.e. solar) or technical in nature (i.e. Lynda.com) which would have minimal resource impact.
