Didn’t approve the use of my name The purpose of this letter is to express my disapproval over council candidate Dan Del Campo’s use of my name in his campaign material. His attempt to give the impression that I support him and that he is slow growth misrepresents the truth. More ... It’s time to take back the city It is time to take our city back! Developers and their money have had a stranglehold on our city council for too long. The future and our children’s quality of life is at stake. More ... Vote for a hard worker Don Morris for City Council on November 5. He’s a good person. He’s a good worker. He knows what is right for our community. More ... I’ve got my eye on the slate There are two points of significant concern about "the slate," besides being a slate. More ... We like this incumbent I am the past president of the Conejo Oaks Property Owners Association and have lived in Thousand Oaks for more than 30 years. My husband, Don, and I are the middle generation of the three generations of our family who live in Thousand Oaks. More ... Just one peak tells the whole story It would take only a quick inspection of the voting records of Andy Fox, Dan Del Campo and Dennis Gillette to give lie to their touted "slow growth" stance. They use this slogan as just that, a slogan only. More ... Judge not on words, but actions Since all 12 candidates running for City Council say they are opposed to Ahmanson Ranch, judge not on their words, judge on their actions. Candidate Dan Del Campo got elected in 1998 saying he thought the city was wasting tax dollars and overdeveloping. More ... Endorses the slate Save Open Space/Santa Monica Mountains proudly endorses the Certified Slow Growth candidates. They truly can be trusted to look out for the interests of the people and our Santa Monica Mountains. More ... Says she’s shocked by incumbents I am a retired Conejo Valley teacher. I believe it is very important that candidates seeking public office demonstrate the highest integrity and respect for the rules and the laws. More ... Says that the entire CVUSD board should go The current board of the Conejo Valley Unified School District needs to be replaced. More ... Says he’s sick of what incumbents are saying Enough is enough. The pro-developer slate of (Dan) Del Campo, (Andy) Fox, and (Dennis) Gillette is spreading outright lies to the public. Let us look at the facts. More ... Candidates should not take special interest donations On June 4, 2002, the City Council had the opportunity to pass a law that would have prohibited council members from voting on issues financially impacting their contributors. More ... If you don’t vote, you lose Attention all undecided voters, newcomers to Thousand Oaks and couch potatoes. Do not be turned off by lack of enthusiasm for the political process because when you do, you lose. More ... Sick of the infighting from the two warring camps I am not that active with the local politics; however, I do read your paper and watch meetings on the television. I am sick of the infighting and the blatantly biased letters from the two warring camps on the council. More ... If you lie, you’ll cry, ‘cause you won’t get our vote "People see with clear eyes." More ... Must concentrate vote on the slate to successfully bring down the incumbents Much interest in the Thousand Oaks City Council election is focused on the three incumbent seats occupied by Andy Fox, Dan Del Campo and Dennis Gillette. More ... Wants a chance to choose Like the majority of Thousand Oaks voters, I feel that I do not really have a choice now even at the council level. People have been shying away from voting for higher offices like the president knowing that candidates like Bush and Gore didn’t excite them. More ... Vote the slate I am a long-time Thousand Oaks resident who has watched this city grow from a rural town of 1,500 in l954 to our present population of over 120,000. Over the years, we have had a succession of city council members guiding this expansion, most of who thankfully kept the vision of a desirable suburban... More ... Can we believe the current council majority Our current council majority has told us that growth is no longer an issue in the Conejo Valley. But strangely, their large signs claim that they too are slow growth and will protect our future. So, who do we believe? More ... Believes the best fiction around is current campaign donation statements The most interesting reading in Thousand Oaks right now is Andy Fox’s 460 Campaign discloser report. Across the top of every page is the typed phrase, "No developer contributions," but close inspection shows this is a lie. More ... Incumbents never met a developer they didn’t like Gillette, Fox, Del Campo and Hoffman never met a developer that they didn’t like. More ... What will the future hold In response to Judy St. John’s letter to the editor in a recent edition of the Thousand Oaks Acorn, she says we should re-elect Andy Fox because he approved development deals resulting in public open space reminded me of Maria Vanderkolk. More ... It’s not recyclable I just received a very large, very slick political mailer from the Certified Slow Team. It is printed on non-recyclable paper. I wonder what the Sierra Club thinks? More ... Voting is a privilege that should not be wasted or abused My daughter will turn 18 on Nov. 5. Right before she left for college, I made sure she registered to vote. As both her parents are politically active, although in different parties, she understood the importance of her participation, even if she couldn’t make up her mind as to what party to select a... More ... Hospital needs to stop holding us for ransom Well, here we go again! The citizens of Westlake Village, Thousand Oaks and Agoura have their hospitalization plans controlled by two big corporations who cannot sit down and decide what must be done to serve the people whose lives they hold for ransom. More ... People need to slow down on residential streets The article (by staff writer Heather Milo) in the Oct. 17 edition, entitled "Resident fears pedestrian safety due to speeders", got my attention.
