Pole Creek

Have you seen what Griffin is doing about Pole Creek? It looks like they are making a spillway for Pole Creek to empty into the Santa Clara River. If this is what they have going on, then they will eliminate a bunch of new homes and maybe need a bridge to cross the spillway. Does anyone have an insight into what they are doing?
The improvements that I see on the north side of 126 for Pole Creek seem inadaquate for rains like 2005 had. This town has had worse rains than that. Water rules and I think many buildings are in harms way in Fillmore. There needs to be a much wider opening under 126 to keep debris from blocking that opening. South of 126 needs at least as wide of a channel as the opening below 126 to keep thing flowing to the river. That's my view from seeing the problems of the past 21 years.

These People Listen To Citizens, Not Developers!

I completely endorse the following candidates and measures:

Gayle Washburn! City Council
This lady really cares about US. She gives her time to teach seniors how to use computers. She works endlessly researching ways to save US money. She puts her money where her mouth is.

Jamey Brooks! City Council
Jamey is all about helping people and has dedicated his life doing so as a pastor and friend to all. From that he saw the need to help the community on a bigger scale and dove into learning the nuts and bolts of city government so he could help more people.

Gracy Donahue! City Treasurer
Gracy is a superb accountant who wants the books open to all so WE know our government has nothing to hide. She will insure honesty with disclosure of our city's expenditures. She also wants to expand her duties for more hands on responsibilites.

Clay Westling! City Clerk
Clay is a great organizer who we can ALL count on to give us a fair shake and honest answers. He has worked tirelessly to promote the truth in government and will help lead us down a better path than our current one.

Measures "H" & "I"
The current residents of North Fillmore do not want the plan that City Council and City Management has forced upon them. They like the more moderate plans "H" & "I" offer. I believe we all moved to Fillmore for it's small town charm. We need these measures to help keep away the urban sprawl from our great little town.
