To the 10 candidates running for seats on the T.O. City Council in November, I would like to pose the following questions: 1. Why are you running?

2. Will you continue supporting public transportation in our city?

3. Will you accept stimulus money from the federal government?

4. Will you protect open space in our fair city?

5. Will you protect mobile park housing for seniors?

6. What measures will you take to prepare the city for an earthquake?

7. Would you support some footbridges along T.O. Boulevard to ensure safe crossing for pedestrians?

8. Would you consider inviting Kaiser to build a hospital locally? The available Baxter building in Westlake has promise.

9. Would you consider call-in questions on Tuesday night City Council meetings for the housebound?

10. What can be done to reduce traffic accidents on the Conejo Grade?

11. Will you support tourism in our city?

12. How will you enhance public education locally?

13. What can be done to further protect bicyclists?

14. What can be done to protect air quality in our city?

I look forward to the election in November, and I wish the candidates well. Samuel M. Rosen Newbury Park
