Logistics

My core mission is to ensure a clean city and a healthy environment for
all residents. Here are the main pillars
of my platform:

1. Clean City Initiative: I plan to operate the sanitation department 24/7
and establish smaller-scale departments within different council districts
to ensure services are available citywide. I intend to work with the
County Board of Supervisors and Sheriff in charge to allow inmates with
sentences of three years or less to clean our streets and parks.
     - Logistics: Participants must be legal to work in the U.S. and will be
treated in accordance with all labor laws, such as eight-hour shifts and
breaks. Every day worked will count as a day off their sentence. Get paid $1.00 a day to have money in
their books when they are released from jail. Non hideous criminals such as murderers, rapist, or
pedophiles will be able to participate in this program.
     - Support: The city will provide uniforms and boots, and participants will receive $1.00 for every day
worked to ensure they have funds for basic needs upon release.
     - Future Opportunity: Participants will receive a letter of recommendation and priority for vacancies
within the sanitation department. They can also be connected with resources like Homeboy Industries to
help them become self-sufficient.

2. Financial Transparency: I will make the city budget public every quarter. At the end of the fiscal year, I
will show exactly where tax dollars were allocated and what funds remain. My goal is to ensure true
transparency and a system of checks and balances.

3. Tax Reform: I will cut the sales tax to eight percent. I believe City Hall should be responsible for
tightening its belt, rather than placing the burden on taxpayers, visitors, or tourists.

4. Enforcement: I will reinstate the no-littering law, which has been neglected by previous
administrations. It will be strictly enforced. 

These are reachable goals, not empty promises. I entered this race to bring accountability to our city
because I am for the people. I am you.

I kindly ask that you do not share these specific details publicly yet, as I want to ensure these goals remain
unique to my campaign. Thank you.

 

Sincerely,

Juanita L Lopez - For Mayor
