What do you think are the biggest issues facing Fountain Valley now? preventing the state from taking our city money to balance their bloated budget; encouraging businesses to move to Fountain Valley and keeping the businesses that are already here, thus bringing in revenue to our city so we can keep our community vibrant and beautiful.

What is one decision in the last year that the City Council got right and why would you have supported it?

The council hired a consultant to study our industrial area to possibly come up with some creative ideas to upgrade the area to stimulate our local economy. This could possibly result in changing the zoning to help the above.

What is the one decision in the last year that the City Council got wrong, or partially wrong, and why would you have voted differently?

In the past year I can’t think of any controversial or earth-shaking decisions that are worth of an answer to this question.
