EVERYONE,
We must not appoint those with ties to special interest groups, real
estate developers and foreign syndicators.
We must appoint those who think clearly, have a real stake in our City
and have proven it over time. We cannot afford anything less.
Please only support Gail Gordon and Analise Wells for Housing
Commission.
Gail is teacher, 30 year resident and a Mom & Pop landlord. She is what
we need more of. She volunteers at creative venues and has community
experience.
Analise is a Born SM native of the Pico area ,with and education in public
policy and a deep interest in fair housing issues. She is 35 years old and
brings fresh eyes and energy to our City and it's diverse needs.
Both these women bring what we need more of to the table of the
Housing Commission and the City residents. Please vote to appoint them.
J.Appointments to two unscheduled vacancies on the Housing Commission for terms ending on
