Criminal Justice / Public Safety N a time when California’s top law enforcement seems to be showing a light attitude towards crime, we need to ensure that Carlsbad gives our police force the utmost support and backing in enforcing all the laws that keep us safe. Housing I want Carlsbad to utilize software used for foster youth to find “long lost” relatives who may be able to either house their homeless relative or pay for a psychiatric bed for them. Environment / Energy I will also insist that SANDAG return to a normal voting procedure where every city has an equal vote. Taxes / Budget I want Carlsbad to place the funding requirements for “low bar” facilities that don’t require people to be clean and sober for housing on those facilities and not on taxpayers. Housing Landscaping in our natural areas can be cut back, creating healthier vegetation that doesn’t allow for concealment of encampments. Encampments need to be recognized and addressed when they begin, not when they get out of control. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I firmly support Prop. 36, and when it is approved in November, I will work towards its implementation in Carlsbad. Environment / Energy Where possible, I support our cities seeking legal avenues to stop Sacramento from taking ever more local control.
