District 2 Issues
The many issues El Dorado County struggles with are quite visible to almost everyone:
- Traffic
- Public Safety
- Water Security
- Growth
- Senior Services
- A Strategic Plan
- The Pension Plan
There are dozens of others which must be addressed as well. Finding these issues is the easy part, finding solutions isn’t. One thing is perfectly clear: Without strong leadership, vision, commitment and hard work, no one is going to unravel the bureaucratic snarl which now permeates county government.
I have eight years experience working within this system. I know what the rules are and how to get things done. I can work with everyone from the heads of departments to the everyday rank and file. My doors will be always open and I plan to be a full-time Supervisor.
Candidate after candidate in the past has promised to “fix” these problems. Once they get elected, do they? Are we any better off now than we were ten years ago? The ills of this County are only symptoms. We must look beyond them and find their causes and then we must work together to find long lasting solutions. Granted, not everyone will be happy with everything, but we must realize that we are all going to have to “give a little,” to accomplish this greater goal. I give you my word I will leave no stone unturned to find the solutions we need and thereby take the steps necessary to protect our future.
