Seven get ready to run
Seven residents have pulled papers to run for the City Council in the first week of the filing period. Among them is former Mayor Bill Alexander, who was ousted in 2006. Alexander and five others have pulled papers to run for the seats of Council members Diane Williams and Rex Gutierrez. They are Williams, Fed-Ex driver Erick Jimenez, Library Foundation Vice President David Gonzalez, war veteran Bill Hanlon and coffee shop owner Jim Moffatt.
Councilman Dennis Michael is the only person who has pulled papers to run for mayor so far. Prospective candidates have until Aug. 6 to file papers. If Mayor Don Kurth does not file at that time, the deadline will be extended to Aug. 11.

a vote for rex is a vote for more problems
I've worked with both Diane Williams and David Gonzalez on the board of Friends of the Pacific Trail.
They're both fine people, and do a lot of civic outreach, not only with my group, but with Friends of the Library.
Even if I might not agree with them 100% of the time, I respect their honest efforts to improve the lives of all RC residents.

So... the sacred little man Rex can run even though he is currently out on bail and could be a convicted felon come November?
VOTE OUT ALL INCUMBENTS. Take out the trash in the next election. It's time for new blood and new ideas on the city, county, and state government. If Michaels is put in as mayor you will have given the fire union even more power over you !!!!!!! TAKE OUT THE TRASH AND SAVE SOME CASH !!!!!!!
