"I need your help to make the much-needed reforms directed by your 2010 vote electing me to the Laguna Hills City Council.

Existing compensation excesses are an insult to our taxpayers. Unfortunately, the long-term city council majority resists responsible restructuring of management compensation.

Simply stated, need supportive council members elected in Novembers to pass much-needed reforms. So I've taken the following action: I've endorsed Dr. Raghu Mathur for City Council.

Dr. Raghu Mathur possesses the fiscal leadership and character that will ensure successful reforms in our city. Please join me in electing Dr. Raghu Mathur to the Laguna Hills City Council."
