As your Councilman

By John W. Minto

What I have done

I am very proud that during my time in office Santee's housing market has vastly improved; the Santee school system remains one of the highest scoring in the county; residents enjoy local shopping, dining, and sports; and crime rates remain one of the lowest.

I have a proven track record of supporting smart growth and am continually working to establish business and industry that benefits Santee. Santee Town Center continues to attract new businesses and provide much needed jobs.

The sports complex at Santee Town Center Park had its grand opening in June 2010. Leagues are already booked for the remainder of the year, and revenue generated will go toward maintenance of parks throughout Santee.

I believe in fair and equitable taxes that will maintain Santee's roads, sidewalks, lighting, parks, law enforcement and fire protection services.
