Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

I am a retired senior on a fixed income that has lived in Yucaipa for 27 years. I am the only candidate that is a home owner in my district. I have time to devote and make myself accessible to the voters in my district to discuss their concerns. I will represent all residents in my district.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• I believe the quality of life is the biggest issue. Putting all our eggs in one basket and relying on the passage of an unpopular tax hike in order to balance the budget is not the answer.
• I consider the Planning Commission very important. If elected I will make sure my selection and appointment to Planning Commission will have a background in Land Use, Developments need to follow the General Plan and zoning. No exceptions!
• City Hall needs to live within their budget. Promote adequate budgeting for essentials such as public safety and infrastructure. City needs to get out of the entertainment business and get back to basics.

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Budget and tax increases. Following the General Plan for development.

What is the first historical event that happened in your lifetime that you remember? How old were you at the time?

The day President Kennedy was shot. I was in my early 20’s, married and the mother of 3 children

Do you believe that it's beneficial for holders of this office to have previous experience in government or politics?

I’ve not run or held public office before. I’m not a professional campaigner or politician. I have had the advantage of years of listening, learning and doing things. There will be times I depend on people I trust to advise me until I become accustomed to the job, that’s why it is a 4 year term.

What organizations or individuals have endorsed your campaign?

San Bernardino County GOP; Brett Granlund, former City Council Member, Retired Ca State Assemblyman, director Yucaipa Valley Water District; Niles O’Hara, Director Yucaipa Valley Water District; Joyce McIntire, former Mayor of Calimesa, President of Yucaipa Valley Water Distict; Steve Copeland, retired SB Municipal water Board Director; Yucaipa Mobile home Resident Assoc; and supported by Howard Jarvis Taxpayer Assoc.
