Environment / Energy I will ensure our water rights are protected while partnering with members from all levels of government to build water storage both above and below ground, including Sites Reservoir. You can also count on me to protect our water from Sacramento special interests and fight their attempts to limit groundwater use. Housing With my experience assisting our city’s homeless, I will work collaboratively with the City of Chico, non-profit and faith-based organizations, to address our homeless issue. The City’s limits on enforcement placed by a lawsuit will expire in January 2027. I will be sure the County is a partner in making Chico safe for all. Environment / Energy The Park Fire combined with decades of neglect have left North Chico and North Butte County more exposed. I have made addressing our flood control needs a top issue in my first term and there is much more that needs to be done to ensure our families and homes are safe. Improving flood control is a not optional. Criminal Justice / Public Safety I will continue to apply my many years of law enforcement experience and work with my fellow Supervisors to pass common-sense proposals to clean up Chico and thwart the encroaching criminal element attempting to take over our city. Environment / Energy As a strong supporter of our local farmers, I will work to ensure our water is protected while creating a business-friendly environment that will lighten the burden on our Ag Industry.
