I am running for mayor of this great town because clearly Herndon is at a crossroads, from which we desperately need to move towards a more united direction. I've always been very interested in the town, and when I started circulating my petitions, my neighbors really encouraged me to do it. It also felt like their voices had not been heard, so I am hoping to give them a voice. |
I would like to see the site comply with the laws and make sure we are serving people who have a legal right to work and make sure properly that contractors are making sure they have licenses and insurance to protect anybody they hire. |
I wouldn't say that it's all about the day labor site. I think people take into account the whole platform of a candidate. |
Overcrowding would be one of the top concerns. I'd like to sit down with the community and see what things we could work out. The community definitely needs to be involved and I think that we really need to take a comprehensive look to see what the current process is for solving the problem and identifying things that need to be changed. |
The Town of Herndon with its historical heritage and small town character has grown very dear to me and my family. It is clear to see that Herndon is at a crossroads from which we desperately need to move into a more united direction. |
The town should defend itself when it's done something correct. In this instance I believe the judgment that went into the decision was flawed and that led to the lawsuit. In this instance, if we had made the decision in a different way and a little more appropriate, then we wouldn't be defending ourselves. It is a big expense, I believe $450 an hour. |
