Our democracy was the envy of the world. Politics was an honored profession. You don't hear that much any more. Politicians are the butt of jokes from the internet to late night N shows. So what went wrong? Did the system of government envisioned by our founders turn out to be a bad idea? Of course not. But somewhere along ,the way, too many politicians stopped thinking about the common good, and started thinking about their own good. Well, in my campaign for the State Assembly, 1• have a pretty simple message for the voters. It's not about me k's about us It's about improving our schools. Its about making sure our health care system serves patients, not corporate bosses. It's about protecting our coast against the rapacious greed_ of oil companies. It's about protecting every woman's right to choose. It's about ensuring that all working families make enough money to Itay for shelter and sustenance. 's about making sure our small businesses thrive and keep on doing what they do best, creating the jobs our economy needs. Here's what I won't do. I won't hire a press secretary. I don't need or want someone on staff trying to make me look good. I'd rather just talk to you directly and let the chips fall where they may. I'd greatly appreciate your vote. www.HoulgateforAssembly.com s/ Larry Houlgate aoa STATEMENT OF CANDID/' `OR JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR„jURT Office No. 4 JACQUELINE FREDERICK Occupation: Civil Trial Attorney Education and Qualifications: With your vote, I will bring integrity, common sense, much needed diversity of experience and a passion for the law and for helping people to our judicial system.

As a testament to my qualifications and courtroom experience, 14 active and retired Judges from San Luis Obispo County have come forward to endorse my candidacy.

A major principle that I believe in is that your property taxes should be spent only on the part of the Port that is available to the general public. I have been doing my best to protect your property tax money from being spent to subsidize the operations and leases and licenses at the Port. It is a up -hill battle I have taken on. I have been a commercial fisherman, merchant mariner, Viet Vet and am an ardent sportfisherman, and own and operate a auto repair shop and a fly shop in Arroyo Grande, I am the only employee. My goals: Rebuilding the Harford Pier, it needs help, especially the walk/roadway out to the end. To establish a profitable enterprise on Harbor Terrace. And to get the businesses off of the taxpayers backs, this is a very unpopular idea at the Port, you might imagine. I want every business that makes a living at the Port to be as prosperous as it can be, but not on the backs of the property tax payers.

U John Ewan STATEMENT OF CANDIDA OR MEMBER OF CITY COUNCIL City of San Luis Obispo PAUL BROWN Age: 34 Occupation: Restaurateur/Soldier Education and Qualifications: San Luis Obispo is the best city on earth. Anyone who doesn't believe that shouldn't ask for your vote. This city is home to diverse people with diverse opinions about how our city should function today, and what it should be like in the future. Everyone's opinion is important. Anyone who expresses one should be honored, not ignored. That's what makes America great, and one of the reasons why I've worn a military uniform. I'm not sure the political elite believe that. They seem to think our city government is their private club, to be managed by them for themselves and their friends. Anyone who wants to "join" the club by participating in civic discourse is viewed as a malcontent. Anyone who isn't opposed to everything is viewed as a nut or a closet developer (not that there's anything wrong with that). I want to change that kind of thinking. This is what I think: Effective management means listening to everyone and deciding what's best for the common good. Even if it means someone gets upset. It means being a leader instead of just talking like one. Here's why you should vote for me: I'm owner of the award-winning Mother's Tavern, an instructor for at -risk youth at the Grizzly Youth Academy, a U.S. Army military police sergeant, lead singer for the Sugar Daddy Swing Kings swing band, and a dedicated rugby player. Vote for me because I'm not like the typical policy wonk talking a good game but getting nothing done. I get things done. I have to. I don't know any other way to live. After so many years of studying, talking, talking and studying, have the wonks solved the housing problem in town? The sorry state of some of our city's neighborhoods and parks? Our precarious supply of water? Necessary jobs disappearing to other cities? The flight of families from the city? Of course not. That would mean they'd have to do something. That just isn't the comfortable Club SLO way. Make a tough decision? What would people at the club say? Vote for me because my diverse background and real-world experience in business, the military, entertainment, and athletics have given me the gift of tolerance, understanding, and compassion for those whose voices may be weak, but whose hearts are strong. Vote for me because I'm one of you. I get things done. sl Paul Brown 4438 DECLARA(2N,`;;iDE CANDIDATO PARA MIEMBRO DEL CONCEJO DE LA CIUDAD Ciudad de San Luis Obispo PAUL BROWN EDAD: 34 Ocupacion: Restaurantero/soldado Educacion y Calificaciones: San Luis Obispo es la mejor ciudad en la tierra. EI que no crea eso no deberia pedirle a usted su voto. Esta ciudad es el hogar de personas diversas con opiniones diversas sobre como nuestra ciudad debe funcionar hoy en dfa, y como debe ser en el futuro. La opinion de todo el mundo es importante. Se debe honrar y no desatender a cualquier persona que exprese una opinion. Eso es Io que hace que Estados Unidos sea grande y una de las razones por las cuales he Ilevado un uniforme militar. No estoy seguro de que la elite politica piense asi. Ellos parecen pensar que nuestro gobierno municipal es su club privado y que debe ser administrado por ellos mismos y sus amigos. Cualquier persona que quiera "asociarse"'al club por participar en un discurso civico se considera un insatisfecho. Cualquier persona que no se oponga a todo se considera un loco o un urbanizador disfrazado (no que sea esto tan mato). Quiero cambiar esa forma de pensar. Esto es to que creo yo: La administracion eficaz significa escucharle a todo el mundo'y decidir que es to mejor para el bien com6n. Aun si a consecuencia alguien se enoja. Significa ser un lider en lugar de solamente hablar como uno. He aqui las razones por las cuales debe votar por mf: Soy dueno de Mother's Tavern, un establecimiento premiado, instructor para jovenes en nesgo en la Academia de Jovenes Grizzly, sargento de la policfa militar del Ejercito de los Estados Unidos, cantante para una banda de m6sica swing, los Sugar Daddy Swing Kings, y un jugador dedicado de rugby.

Vote por mf porque yo soy uno de ustedes. Yo realizo las tareas. f/ Paul Brown STATEMENT OF C.AND( ° FOR MEMBER OF CITY C�CIL City of San Luis Obispo 4NDREW CARTER Dccupation: Writer Education and Qualifications: In the past four years, housing affordability in San Luis Obispo has fallen from 40% to 266. This means only one in five households can afford the price of an average home. Since housing prices continue to rise, most residents will never be able to afford a house no matter how much they scrimp and save ... unless the City takes dramatic action now. Here are some of the things I think the City should do: Require all new commercial developments to include an affordable housing component or pay in -lieu fees. New residential developments are already required to do this, yet commercial developments create the housing need. Develop incentives to encourage existing commercial developments to add second -story apartments. This would free up housing in our neighborhoods for families. Accelerate the build -out of previously approved housing developments. The General Plan allows residential growth of 1 % per year. We're averaging half that. We can build the houses faster and still stay within the 1% cap. • Zone more land for housing and less for commercial. • Encourage the County to develop a "new town" at Camp San Luis. This town would be close to jobs at the Men's Colony, Cuesta College, and County operations. It could include dorms for out -of -area Cuesta students. • Work with the Dalidio family and the Airport Land Use Commission to make sure housing and not just stores are built on the Dalidio property. • Take aggressive action at the state and local level to force Cal Poly to house more of its students on campus. In particular, this means the fast -tracking of additional dorms on campus and no enrollment increases until after those dorms are built. I've been talking about affordable housing at City Council meetings for over a year now. In that time, little action has been taken. I believe the City must be more aggressive in meeting the affordable housing need. If elected, I'll make sure that need is addressed ... now. On election day, I'd appreciate your support. Vote Andrew Carter for City Council. s/ Andrew Carter 40-39 DECLA � ; N DE CANDIDATO PARA MIEMBRGCONCEJO DE LA CIUDAD Ciudad de San Luis Obispo ANDREW CARTER Ocupaci6n: Escritor Educaci6n y Calificaciones: Durante los ultimos cuatro aflos, el porcentaje de vivienda asequible en San Luis Obispo ha bajado del 40%al20%. Esto significa que solamente una familia en cinco puede pagar el precio promedio de una casa. En vista de que los precios de vivienda siguen subiendo, la mayor parte de los residentes nunca podra comprar una casa, no importa cuanto economizan y cuanto ahorran ... a menos que la ciudad tome medidas radicales ahora. utas son algunas de las cosas que yo creo que la ciudad deberia hacer: • Exigir que todas las nuevas urbanizaciones comerciales incluyan un componente de vivienda econ6mica o que paguen un cargo en su lugar. Las nuevas urbanizaciones residenciales ya tienen que hacer eso, pero son las urbanizaciones comerciales que crean la necesidad de vivienda. • Desarrollar incentivos para estimular a las urbanizaciones comerciales actuales a agregar apartamentos en el segundo piso. Esto aliviarfa la vivienda en nuestros vecindarios para las familias. Acelerar la construccibn de urbanizaciones residenciales previamente aprobadas. EI plan general permite un crecimiento residencial anual del 1%. Nuestro promedio es la mitad de eso. Podemos construir las casas mas rapido y todavia cumplir con el Ifmite del 1%. • Dedicar mas zonas para vivienda y menos para construcci6n comercial. • Estimular al condado a desarrollar un "nuevo pueblo" en el Campamento San Luis. Este pueblo estarla cerca de Jos empleos en la Colonia de Hombres; en el Colegio Universitario Cuesta, y en las operaciones del condado. Podr(a incluir dormitorios para los estudiantes de Cuesta que provengan de otros lugares. • Trabajar con la familia Dalidio y con la Comisi6n de Usos de Suelo del Aeropuerto para garantizar que se construya vivienda y no solamente tiendas en la propiedad de Dalidio. • Tomar medidas en6rgicas a nivel estatal y local para obligar a la Universidad Politacnica de California a hospedar a mas de sus estudiantes en el plantel escolar. En particular, esto significa una aceleraci6n en la construcci6n de dormitorios en el plantel sin aumentos en la matrfcula hasta que se hayan construido esos dormitorios. He estado hablando sobre la vivienda econ6mica en las reuniones del concejo de la ciudad por mas de un ario ahora. En ese tiempo, se han tomado pocas medidas. Creo que la ciudad tiene que ser mas energica para satisfacer las necesidades de vivienda econ6mica. Si soy elegido, me asegurar6 de que se haga frente a esa necesidad ... ahora.

I will continue to build consensus on the council and in the community with consultation and respect. One of my major goals is resolving our housing needs and adopt a new housing element in the general plan. I continue efforts to stop Sacramento's plan to double the city's population in twelve years costing you the taxpayer over 25 million dollars with their new housing allocation plan that ignores growth management, land use policies and water limits. I will continue actions to secure our share of a reliable water source using a desalination program saving the taxpayers three million dollars a year in water rates. Nacimiento Reservoir project remains as a backup resource. These efforts to augment our water sources are to protect our City from the danger of future droughts. I have worked to improve intergovernmental relations with other cities, the county, the schools, and the university. I have initiated joint meetings with all seven cities and the county to help resolve common problems such as housing and state actions that take away our revenues and local control. I support job stability with higher paying employment opportunities and attract businesses such as the Copeland downtown project. I support athletic fields, senior center and the success of the Performing Arts Center. I support the green belt around the city along with waterway and habitat preservation. I support improved public works projects such as street maintenance, and additional downtown parking. I have worked for neighborhood preservation and continued communication with neighborhood associations. Viable neighborhoods are vital to our quality of life. I continue to support sound finance policies that have rewarded our city with the highest financial ratings. I will continue to work to achieve future balanced budgets for the city. Help me achieve these goals and objectives. I ask for your vote to be elected council member on November 5th. sl Allen K.

"(B) All bids shall be accompanied by either a certified or :ashier's check, or a bidder's bond executed by a corporate surety wthorized to engage in such business in California, made payable o the City. Such security shall be in an amount not less than that specified in the notice inviting bids or in the specifications referred o therein, or if no amount be so specified then in an amount not ess than ten percent (10%) of the aggregate amount of the bid. If he successful bidder neglects or refuses to enter into the contract, vithin the time specified in the notice inviting bids or specifications eferred to therein, the amount of the bidder's security shall be ieclared forfeited to the City and shall be collected and paid into is general fund and all bonds so forfeited shall be prosecuted and he amount thereof collected and paid into such fund. The Council nay eject any and all bids presented and may readvertise at its iiscretion. "(C) The Council, after rejecting bids or if no bids are received, nay declare and determine that, in its opinion, based on estimates approved by the City Administrative Officer, the work in question nay be performed better or more economically the City with its )wn employees and after the adoption of a resolution to this effect )y at least four (4) affirmative votes of the council and containing a declaration of the facts constituting such urgency. "(D) Nothing in this section shall be construed to apply to any xoject involving the expenditure of City monies by the City for public Norks in cooperation with a developer or subdivider for oversized acilities or such cooperative extension or replacement of mains and appurtenances. For those projects the City shall have the authority :o make funds available to the cooperating developer or subdivider in a fixed formula basis established at least annually by Council ,esolution. ;ontract by informal procedures as set forth in Sections 22032 et seg. of that code. The City Council shall establish by ordinance guidelines for the use of such contracts. LYSIS BY CITY ATTORNEY AR TER PROPOSITION MEASURE L-02 Section 901 of the San Luis Obispo City Charter currently requires that most City public works construction contracts which cost more than the amount specified in California Public Contract Code Section 20162 must be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder after notice and a formal bidding process. Public Contract Code Section 20162 (which was last amended in 1982) sets the expenditure limit requiring public bidding at $5,000.00. Because of inflation, this $5,000.00 limit requires the City to prepare formal plans and specifications and conduct a formal bidding process for even minor projects, which increases costs and extends the time necessary to award contracts. This Charter amendment would allow the City to award maintenance related Projects using a "unit price contract" for all necessary labor, materia s, and equipment provided such contracts are secured on a competitive basis as otherwise required by Public Contract Code Section 201285. A "unit price contract" is a competitively bid, fixed unit price, indefinite quantity contract for renovation, repair, remodeling, alteration, or other repetitive work. New construction would still be subject to bidding requirements. The City Council must establish guidelines by ordinance for the award and use of such unit price contracts, and may set an amount below which the City Administrative Officer may award such contracts. In addition, this Charter Amendment would allow public works contracts of. $100,000 or less to be awarded by the alternative procedures of the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act, as set forth commencing with Public Contract Code Sections 23032. This would allow for simplified bidding procedures for projects under $100,000.00, provided specified competitive safeguards are met. The City Council must establish guidelines by ordinance for the use of such contracts. 4o-503 s/ Jeffrey G. Jorgensen, City Attorney City of San Luis Obispo ARGUMENT IN FAVOR OF MEASURE L-02 The City contracting process is governed by a decades -old method of determining which projects must be put out to formal public bid. The current City Charter has very restrictive provisions regarding contracting for construction projects. Any project greater than $5,000 in value must be competitively bid using formal plans and specifications. The fact is, not every project needs individual formal bid documents to be completed. That's just too much paperwork and bureaucracy. Amending the City Charter to adopt Unit Price contracts and Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act provisions will enhance our ability to get projects under construction, with an emphasis on quality construction. These alternative methods greatly enhance the City's flexibility to deal with changing priorities. Adoption of these two methods of contracting will significantly increase the amount of work available for local contractors. It will focus on expediting construction rather than forcing every project through the same formal bid procedures. We will still seek formal bids for new construction, but there will be many more chances for smaller, more specialized contractors to be successful. You can help to modernize an old process that will result in a real boost to our local economy. Imagine a City whose infrastructure is maintained in a timely and efficient manner. Streets, buildings, parks and utilities are in good working order and construction projects for repairs are quickly initiated and completed by skilled contractors. We have the opportunity to make this vision a reality and update our contracting practices by adopting two alternative methods of contracting for construction Projects. If you want to help the City achieve its vision to get projects done faster and more efficiently, please vote yes on Measure L-02. s/ Jan Howell Marx, Vice -Mayor, City of San Luis Obispo s/ Ken Schwartz, Council Member, City of San Luis Obispo s/ Leslie Halls, Executive Director of the San Luis Obispo County Builders Exchange NO ARGUMENT AGAINST THIS MEASURE WAS SUBMITTED Visit Us On The Web www.sloelections.org Election Results Posted Approximately Every 15 Minutes Election Night Now You Can Find Your Polling Place Here 40 -MB -2 111111111111111@ ��'GO�'d f r cf San Lugs Obispo Sibe Search.
