Next year, we the people, will have another opportunity to take back our government. It will not be about democrats or republicans, but about throwing out the incumbents, They tried; they failed. We must replace the council members, commissioners, and state legislators with new blood, new life, persons who will listen to the people, placing in office those who were ahead of the curve, those who had the vision to identify and acknowledge the pending collapse and gloom and its causes, those who have solutions, not excuses . The old establishment claims that term limits is now bringing us a leadership vacuum I say we have had a leadership vacuum under the old regime. If insanity is defined as to continue to do the same thing over and over again and expect different results. It would be foolhardy indeed for we the people to rely on the old officials that led us into these crisis’s to some how be ordainly enlightened and capable and willing to now lead us out of them. WE need new leadership in the years to come to guide us into the future with the people, the public, sitting side by side with representatives that will indeed truly represent then.

ELECTED OFFICIALS HAVE FAILED TO MAKE GROWTH PAY ITS OWN WAY

 The base root cause of the current financial and budget crisis is not the downturn in the local economy which has for years been based on & foolishly relied upon a chain letter type of sprawl growth. The crisis is as a direct result of grossly inadequate fees based on the impacts of that growth and the total failure of Local Officials to PLAN for this downturn. The bursting of the housing bubble was inevitable and predicted for years by everyone except Elected Officials who defiantly ignored the Will and Wisdom of the People.

It would be pure folly to rely on the same Officials that led us into this crisis to be willing and able to lead us out of it!

ELECTED OFFICIALS MUST STRIVE TO WELCOME, ENCOURAGE, AND FACILITATE CITIZEN PARTICIPATION IN THE REGULATION AND CONTROL OF THEIR GOVERNMENT
The process of Government is broken and we are in financial crisis. Most residents have little or no confidence or respect for Officials, whether elected or bureaucrats. Without immediate and corrective measures our quality of life will continue to plummet out of control at the same time we have pressures for increased taxes, fees, costs, & deficits.
It is not to late to take corrective actions, but it is the eleventh hour, and WE THE PEOPLE must move immediately to begin to resume control of OUR government.

Please VOTE for me to make that change.
