* CORONA DEL MAR’S VISION 2004:...

* CORONA DEL MAR’S VISION 2004:

“The Vision 2004 plan is about making it look nicer and making it

a pedestrian area. I don’t have a problem with making it look nicer

as long as it doesn’t slow up traffic.”

* FISCAL SPENDING:

“I think we need to look at the ways the city is spending its

money and where it could do better. ... The $1 million we’re spending

to fix up the restrooms on Corona del Mar Beach, we could probably

fix up those restrooms for $100,000 and make better use of that

money.”

* PARKS AND PLAYING FIELDS:

“There have been only a couple new active parks added to the city

in the last 20 years. That’s because the park ordinance was changed

some years ago and it never should have been changed. We need more

active parks. Teams have to get on a schedule just to play.... I

would like to see some school locations open up more of their lots

and acreage. We should negotiate with them.”

* AN EL TORO AIRPORT:

“El Toro should be an airport. There’s no question about it.”

* GREENLIGHT:

“I have a very strong commitment to Greenlight.... It’s not no

growth. Greenlight just keeps (the developers) honest.”
