We are currently faced with development choices that could have a profound impact on our community. I will continue to ensure that any proposed development projects (Baylands, Quarry, Sierra Point, etc.) reflect the needs and values of our community and preserve our small town atmosphere.
Preservation of our small town atmosphere must be compatible with any efforts for economic development. Now more than ever, the City Council needs experienced leaders who have earned your confidence, your trust, and have a proven track record of accomplishment.
I will use my financial, governmental expertise and problem solving skills to serve the needs of Brisbane as I have demonstrated in the past. Once again, I need your help to accomplish the above list of goals. I will work to keep Brisbane a community where our children are safe and our lives are enriched by improved services.
Together we have made our community a more special place to live, work and play. Once again, I ask for your support and your precious vote to ensure that Brisbane will continue to be a jewel on the side of our mountain.
