Questions 7-16.
.
As City Councilman for the City ofLomita I found the experience very rewarding.
I am excited at the possibility of serving this community on the Planning
Commission and look forward to the opportunity of once more becoming an
involved citizen.

12.
The role of Planning Commission is to assist the City Council in areas of city
planning. The Planning Commission acts upon community requests, performs
delegated tasks of the City Council and apply community diligence.
Community interest and service is paramount.
I have served as Commissioner and City Councilman and therefore have direct
experience with City Government. As a community businessman I have a vested
interest in the well-being of this community. Most importantly I feel an obligation
to be more than a receiver of societies efforts.
We must plan for the future without destroying the past.
The City Council defines direction, the Planning Commission follows that
direction.
13.

15.
Small business and tourism dominate our business climate. Logic dictates that we
should utilize a mutual fund approach and vary our business mix.
Growth by demand is inevitable and cannot be legislated.
Unknown.
16. A community where 100% of the population votes.
