Alex Mollkoy, Write-in Candidate for City Council
Alex Mollkoy, write-in candidate for City Council. "Let’s restore common sense to City Hall. We must bring back a sense of unity to all the people of this great little town we all call home. We can make this a better place. Let us continue on with the traditions and good values we all cherish for our small town community. We owe it to ourselves, our neighbors and our visitors." Who am I? I grew up in a small town of eight square miles called Fountain Valley, California. In the 1960’s this small town in Orange County was first a farming community next to the Santa Ana River. I remember sand bagging the river banks during storm season before the city had built the levees. As I grew up there I watched it grow into one housing tract after another; they called them planned communities. By the time I graduated High School the entire eight square miles except for “Mile Square Park”, became planned communities with strip malls. Let’s not have that happen here in Fillmore. I believe in smart responsible growth for any community. There must be a healthy balance of housing, recreation and business within any city. Competition is not only good for business, it makes for a fair playing field for all and we become the beneficiaries of our free market system. I am in support of our business park going forward without any undo delays. We need more jobs in our community soon. I moved to Fillmore in 2000, looking to recapture life in the slow lane, where people still strive to know one another and treat their neighbors with kindness. Fillmore is the last best small town in America. It is my goal to keep it that way! I hope that I can earn your vote this November 2nd 2010. You will need to write-in my name, ALEX MOLLKOY on your ballot. Thank you, |
