DISTRICT 2 RACE IN THE NEWS

Today the Pensacola News Journal ran a lengthy article on the District 2 race.  I thought it was a fair and balanced article.  It portrayed me as a "civil rights, "tree hugging" Democrat."  I plead guilty to all three charges. 

This is a tree in McClay Gardens in Tallahassee.  I love McClay Gardens - it is pristine and gives one a glimpse of what beauty was once here probably in Pensacola.  Trees are vital to life on this earth.  I love the poem "I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree".

If I am elected to the City Council I am committed to assuring the City Council will  implement the conservation portion  of the city's Comprehensive plan.  I love trees as many other residents do.  As I  walk from one end of the district to the other people express to me their desire to have more trees in their neighborhoods.  The residents who are fortunate to have a lot of trees in their neighborhoods express their joy at living in and a round the beauty of trees.
