"I understand that listening to people's concerns goes a long way toward finding workable solutions to their problems—a can-do attitude the board lacks."
"All the issues that concern Mason District residents—skyrocketing double-digit tax increases year after year, out-of-control county spending with no clear vision for Fairfax's future and no discernible improvement in services, endless traffic with limited alternative transportation options and a lack of zoning enforcement—stem from a single problem: lack of leadership on the Board of Supervisors. Gathering citizen input on important public policy decisions has become a meaningless exercise for the current board; citizens must become the most important source of information for supervisors again. Supervisors are supposed to serve citizens, not special interests."
