No on Measure A

Margie Kay accurately represented that I was supporting GPU4 at the April 10 KION-TV debate, "Fight for the Future."

What she failed to state is GPU4 is the general plan recommended by an 8-2 majority of the Planning Commission and approved by the Board of Supervisors, 4-1.

GPU4 is the plan adopted by the county.

I will continue to support and advocate for GPU4 until June 6, just as Board of Supervisors chairman Dave Potter supports and advocates for the LandWatch Initiative, Measure A. I know, come June 6, Supervisor Potter and myself as planning commissioner will both uphold whichever plan is put into place, and will continue to fairly represent the people's best interest in accordance with adopted laws.

Because Kay believes government has consistently degraded the public trust, she should work hard to replace her elected representatives rather than support a measure where even her recently approved development project would require a countywide vote.

Measure A threatens the future of Monterey County.

Vote "no" on Measure A.
