OTHER INFORMATION
QUESTIONNAIRE
OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES
Do you support the proposed $850 million bond in its entirety?
No
The $850 million bond is broken into 6 propositions. Which one is most important to you? 1. Streets, bridges & Sidewalks - $446,263,000 2. Drainage & Flood - $138,988,000 3. Parks & Recreation - $187,313,000 4. Library & Cultural - $24,025,000 5. Public Safety Facilities – $34,411,000 6. Neighborhoods – $20 million
Drainage and Flood but I do not want $1,389,000 public art included in this.
Which of the above six propositions would you vote against? (list all that apply)
Streets, Bridges & Sidewalks; Parks and Recreation; Library and Cultural; Public Safety Facilities; Neighborhoods I disapprove of these because these contain much wasteful spending and are very unfairly distributed.
Congress should repeal the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare).
Strongly Agree
Governments should define marriage as between one man and one woman; no other definition of marriage should be legalized or supported with taxpayer or public funds.
Strongly Agree
Human life begins at conception and deserves legal protection at every stage until natural death.
Strongly Agree
The more people live by Judeo-Christian values, the less government is needed.
Strongly Agree
It is the government’s responsibility to be sure everyone has health care and a livable income.
Strongly Disagree
I am in favor of construction of a wall and other necessary infrastructure on our border that gives complete control over entering and exiting the United States.
Strongly Agree
More restrictive gun control laws are needed to protect public safety.
Strongly Disagree
Planned Parenthood should not receive funds from federal, state, or local governments.
Strongly Agree
Individuals should be allowed to use public restrooms, showers, and changing rooms based on their "gender identity."
Strongly Disagree
It is inappropriate for a local government to recognize the terms “sexual orientation” and “gender identity” and issue rules relating to an individual's beliefs about gender and sexuality.
Strongly Agree
People should be able to vote without photo identification.
Strongly Disagree
There should be strict enforcement of federal and state laws prohibiting the distribution of obscene pornography, including over the Internet.
Strongly Agree
I support tolling existing highways that have been previously un-tolled.
Strongly Disagree
Government should not discriminate against individuals, organizations, or business owners who affirm marriage as between one man and one woman.
Strongly Agree
Marijuana should be legalized and regulated like tobacco and alcohol.
Strongly Disagree
Considering these issues (social, economic, education, transportation, water or sewer), which is the most critical to our city?
transportation
Please list up to six issues or projects that you feel need the most attention, in priority order.
Increasing police and firefighters' benefits packages so we can hire from other cities to fill all the vacancies Redirecting spending to decongest our freeways. (We already own the rights of way to 1604 and IH 10) Rebuilding broken streets correctly Upgrading drainage and flood control Increasing the number of firehouses and ambulances Decreasing excessive fees and regulations to make our city more business- friendly and home ownership more accessible to middle income earners
I own one or more firearms.
No
I support the use of Collective Bargaining.
Strongly Agree
I believe the current City Manager should be replaced.
Yes
Did you contribute 10% or more of your gross income to charity last year?
Yes
If you own a business, please describe.
I own a health and wellness business with 11 associates who can lead it without me. I also own and manage rental properties, another passive income business.
What in the nature of mankind caused America’s Founders to carefully define, separate, and limit powers in the Constitution?
Sin
Briefly describe your spiritual beliefs and values.
I believe in the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, the only Son of the only Almighty God, our Creator. I believe Jesus Christ died for our sins on the cross, was buried and rose again on the third day. I believe in salvation by faith. I believe the Bible is the holy, inerrant Word of God. I believe the Bible, the Holy Spirit, and the Church guide believers to live a holy life of divine purpose on this earth for the glory of our loving Father God. I believe Jesus is the only way to the Father. I believe the family is God's plan. I believe God is the holy, righteous judge of every heart. I am very grateful He is merciful beyond understanding. I believe joy is found when one is in the center of God's will. I value truth, integrity, humility, friendships, family, all ethnic groups, financial independence and righteous government by the people.
