Dear Neighbor, I raised my family in San Diego, built a small engineering business with my husband and served as a long-time volunteer community leader. Since being elected to City Council in 2008, I have made important reforms to city pensions and retiree healthcare and implemented managed competition, saving the City hundreds of millions of dollars. I also cut my pay by 8.9% and my staff's by 6% and eliminated the $10,000 annual car allowance for elected officials. As a result, our city will have its first balanced budget in years with a surplus of $16.5 million. I recently developed and gained approval for San Diego's first-ever comprehensive water policy, ensuring a reliable water supply for our future. As the chair of the new Economic Development Committee, I am building a long-term vision to create quality jobs, cut red tape and improve our economy. I have fought to maintain library and recreation center hours and programs, improve public safety, and resurface more than 25 miles of roads and fill thousands of potholes in District One. I hope you will support me so I can continue working for you. Best Wishes, Sherri S. Lightner, P.E. San Diego City Councilmember, District 1 |
