A Leader Who Listens
Grand Terrace has experienced turbulent times – losing our
redevelopment agency, loss of sales tax, and an increase in the cost of
providing basic services.
Tight budgets are the reality for Grand Terrace
residents for the foreseeable future. The people have spoken and the city must
learn to live within its means. We as a community must find additional revenue
from new sources to continue to offer basic services at acceptable levels.
Grand Terrace deserves a Mayor who will remain focused on the important
issues facing the city, even during the difficult times, while maintaining a
positive attitude and portraying Grand Terrace as a great place to live, work
and raise a family.
The City deserves a leader who takes a stand for
fiscal responsibility, one who will not be frozen by obstacles or “things not
going as planned;” a leader who believes the value of a City lies in its
community, its local control of property use and zoning with a balance between
business friendly and resident friendly.
I have been that leader and
representative for all Grand Terrace Residents and I am committed to continue being that
Mayor.
I'm asking you for your vote.
