 Hello, my name is John Leopold and I'm honored to be your county supervisor. As a 27-year resident of Live Oak, I have been a Live Oak Little League coach, helped in Soquel schools, and represented the area on the Cabrillo College Board. As your supervisor, I continue to work tirelessly to strengthen our community, empower our neighborhoods, and accomplish our shared goals. Working together with the community, I have protected neighborhoods by limiting vacation rentals. When oil companies eyed our county for new development, I worked with the community to make Santa Cruz County the first county to ban fracking in the state. When flight paths over our homes changed, I helped lead the community effort to force the FAA to come to the table to address our concerns. Through our conversations, we have identified needs for young people and I secured funding to build a Boys and Girls Club that serves 200 children each day. We didn't have a medical office, so I worked to establish the Eastcliff Family Health Center that we are now co-locating with the Entes Dental Clinic. And together we saw the need for more parks, and we have built Felt Street Park, the Harder Soquel Park, and the first fully inclusive playground, Leo's Haven, at Chanticleer Park, where children of any ability can play together. The experience that I have gained and the trust that you have given me has produced results. Let's continue by protecting our neighbors and mobile home parks from out-of-town speculators and provide resources for the most vulnerable families. Let's work together to address the critical issues of transportation, climate change, and affordable housing. No one will outwork me. No one will listen more tentatively.
