Why Are You Running For City Council?By Paul FrankelCandidate for Council Member; City of Solana Beach |
This information is provided by the candidate | |
Why Are You Running For City Council?My family and I moved to Solana Beach about 10 years ago. We loved the beach community feel of Solana Beach and that our local schools were an integral part of the community. We saw that that there was a City Council in Solana Beach that recognized the value of a vibrant business community but balanced the need to have a strong tax base with the need to maintain the wonderful charm and character of our City. However, over the past 8 years, things changed. Our Council has implemented new ordinances that compromised our property rights, strained to satisfy the needs of minor constituencies at the expense of larger, more important ones, and watched as our City saw a pronounced deterioration in our key tax revenues. My decision to seek election to the City Council was made after numerous discussions and meetings with friends, neighbors and local business owners who were unhappy with the way our City has been run recently and, like me, wanted a Council that was focused on the things that matter most to those of us who live here: family, fiscal sustainability and freedom from needless intrusion of local government in our daily lives. |
