Davis From my perspective after three terms on the Davis City Council, including service as mayor, plus 10 years of Davis board, commission, committee and task force appointments, I offer my endorsements of two outstanding City Council candidates.

Davis The EnterpriseÕs summary Sunday of two City Council candidate forums helped me move closer to making my voting decisions. I give thumbs up to Daniel Watts for recognizing the inadequacy of housing in Davis; Joe KrovozaÕs vision of achieving Òaging in placeÓ by stacking seniors in multi-story apartment complexes is unappealing. The other candidatesÕ … Continue Reading
