Editor,
Vote for Verna Rollinger and Judie Mancuso for Laguna Beach city council. Mayor Steve Dicterow has done too many dumb things to list here and Bob Whalen and Dicterow have voted to spend $1.5 million on consultants, voted for a giant 500 + garage at our city entrance and the hiring of a new police chief from out of town when one of our cops could have done a better job.
Dicterow’s latest scheme cost us $80,000 for buses to transport visitors from the freeway to downtown’s bus station and it was a bust. Whalen’s grand scheme to underground utilities caused one lady to tell me she would rather keep looking at the poles and lines than be saddled with a tax bill for years to underground.
Vote for Susan Savary for Congress person. Dana Rohabacher, a friend of our Mayor Dicterow, is a no show, too. He has been a congressman for 27 years, has introduced 305 bills and only three became law. He has never been a full committee chairman and collected his salary while other federal employees were put on furlough when he voted for the government shutdown.
Hillary Clinton isn’t perfect, but she is certainly not crazy like Donald Trump who experts say suffers from at least one personality disorder called narcissistic personality disorder, is a serial liar, has ripped everybody off from painting contractors to banks and the IRS.
Laguna is different. We are dog town, canyon country, a sanctuary for birds, raccoons, skunks, deer, and snakes. We are a skateboard park because we have the ideal topography for skateboarding. We sponsor one of the oldest surf contests in the world and are proud of our international LGBT friendly beach, West Street.
We are a walking paradise with endless gardens, fabulous parks, remarkable lifeguards, fantastic public art. We need city council people who care about our people – our history – our traditions and our trees. Vote for Verna, Judie, Susan and Hillary.
Roger Carter, Laguna Beach
