I want to thank the many citizens for reaching out to me with your support and opinions and ideas. I have taken it all to heart and win, lose or draw I feel grateful for becoming so immersed in our local leadership. As one of the very first two candidates to recognize Measure N as too divisive, poorly written and unnecessary given the almost 600 housing apartments being proposed and Sugar Pine Village's grand opening with folks moving in as I write this, my hope is that a kind respectful, thoughtful, city council will be in place as a result of this election. Of course, I hope to be one of those people. That is why I and the great folks who have supported me have worked so hard every day to let you know who I am and how I can help bring extensive business sense, knowledge of how things work, civility and common sense to the position. I understand that once elected I would represent every citizen, not just those who voted for me. Since I also speak Spanish, I intend to reach out to our underrepresented citizens to help grow new leaders and include their ideas. I will listen to every idea and use common sense and fairness as my guide.
