Council Member; City of Claremont

This is a copy of information submitted to elections officials by the candidate

LARRY SCHROEDER
Age: 59
Occupation: Retired Finance Director

I am running for City Council to contribute 26 years experience in public fi nancial management and economic development to Claremont, a city I have been proud to call home since 2002. Fiscal responsibility and accountability are the foundation of my campaign. A new perspective is my promise to you.

As a recently retired finance director who served Glendora and Lakewood, adjunct instructor at the University of La Verne, and member of Claremont’s Community Services Commission, I have the knowledge and experience to make our city government more effective.

My wife and I moved to Claremont, because it is a safe community with tree lined streets and services that make it a wonderful place to live, work, raise family, and retire. With respect for this strong tradition, I look forward to working with you to address:

Economic Development - Target specific retailers that meet Claremont’s needs.

Budget Oversight – Bring informed budget oversight to City Council. Sustainability – Develop practical strategies to sustain our community.

Water Supply – Better control water supply and cost.

Traffic Mitigation – Reduce speeds on major streets and create efficient traffic flow through the Village.

Public Safety – Construct a more efficient police facility – but only when financing is available.
