Council Member; City of Riverside; Ward 5

This is a copy of information submitted to elections officials by the candidate

CHRIS MAC ARTHUR
AGE: 47
OCCUPATION: Business Owner / Citrus Farmer
EDUCATION AND QUALIFICATIONS:

I am running for City Council to improve our overall quality of life while maintaining Riverside’s small town feel and citrus heritage.

The greatest issue facing Riverside is traffic. As your city councilmember, I will take every action necessary to reduce traffic congestion.

I support a strong city partnership with our schools. Our children must have a safe enviroment to learn how to read, write, and speak English.

City Hall must be held accountable to the people. I oppose the taking of people’s homes to sell their property for development by the process of “eminent domain.”

Riverside has been my home since age 3. I grew up and went to school here. I graduated from the University of Southern California and have been married to my wife Jolyn, for over twenty years. We have lived in the same house for fifteen years and have two sons, ages 9 and 11.

Should I have the privilege of representing you, I promise to always be your voice for our community and fight to keep our neighborhoods from being neglected by City Hall.

I would be honored to have your vote.

If you have any questions, please call me at (951) 328-0741.
