We need experienced and proven leaders to work together and make tough decisions. The council members selected in our next election will have a significant impact on the City’s future. We need them to be responsible, capable and focused on the issues that matter most.

Smart Growth – What is our Legacy?
We need a unified vision for the Tustin Legacy.
At approximately 1,600 acres, the Tustin Legacy represents a significant portion of our City and its future. It has been almost 20 years since the original Legacy-focused General Plan update and development has been slow. We cannot let the next 20 years be the same. The future of our historic blimp hangars is unclear, land sits vacant and underutilized, and there is no clear vision for the overall development.
Invest in our Historic Old Town
A flourishing Old Town is a benefit to all residents.
The City has one of the oldest and most historic “Old Towns” in Orange County and yet the number of visitors remain low. I will seek to earmark a portion of funds raised through the sale of property at the Tustin Legacy to invest in Old Town. I will ensure the City works with businesses, property owners and residents to identify the best ways to make this investment in our future.
