 We are at a defining moment in our community. Will we meet the challenges that face our community in terms of housing affordability, homelessness, environmental protection, and quality of life? The next few years, both in policy and approach, will set the stage either way. Affordable housing is at the root of many of our challenges. Traffic is linked to a job, housing imbalance, where people have to live further away from work in order to find an affordable place to live. And unsheltered homeless rates continue to rise as finding safe and secure housing options are difficult and road conditions vex many in our district due to deferred maintenance. But we can reverse these trends. With the greater willingness to say yes to affordable housing options, a stronger focus on encouraging major local employers to have work sites in the South County, and with new road funding that's come online, we can significantly improve housing options, traffic issues, and even the quality of life. In the next year, areas of Seacliff, Pleasant Valley, La Selva, and Coralitos will receive road repairs as part of a new road funding that I work to secure. Areas that haven't seen repairs in decades, and new parks are being built, homeless navigation centers, and new affordable housing is being planned and more. These improvements over the next four years are a result of my work over the last seven, but they require an ability to say yes, to work with other electives to get the votes to make it happen, advocacy at the state and federal level, and non-stop persistence. It's been a privilege to serve you on the Board of Supervisors, and I'd be honored to serve you again for another term.
