Preserving Larkspur's Small Town Character
Larkspur is recognized for its special small town character. Preserving that character will be critical because of anticipated proposals to develop the last large land parcels.
Encouraging Citizen Participation and Incorporating Their Concerns in Council Decisions
I strongly support citizen participation, and I believe that the Council decisions should reflect widely held views of the community.
