Re-Elect

John W. Minto

Santee City Council

Monday November 06, 2006

Hi.  Welcome to my web site.

Fire Safety and Law Enforcement’s Choice

I ran for City council because I believe in hard work, truth, honor, integrity and public service.

Four years later, Citizens of Santee say my hard work proves I am truthful, honest and a leader with integrity.  The change at City Hall has made a difference.  I am working to cultivate a city conducive to residents, the business community, and future development.

Please Visit the Voice of Santee to see what people are saying.

Public Safety:

 

    Endorsed by the Deputy Sheriffs Association of San Diego County

As a 26-year Police Officer, it is no wonder one of my top priorities is public safety.  As your Councilman, I took over as chairman of the Community Policing Committee.  Since taking over, I have sponsored and supported new laws that protect children from sexual predators, and prohibit the consumption of alcoholic beverages in certain parks. I created protocol for addressing transients creating a nuisance within our city.

 Traffic Issues:   

Like many of you, I am frustrated about traffic on our streets.  The completion of State Route 52 is a requirement for an estimated 30% relief.  That is why I supported Proposition A, the bond to fund building and completing freeways. The Cities poorly functioning traffic circulation is a major concern, and I am pushing for a comprehensive plan to make changes.

 

    Endorsed by the Santee Firefighters Association

After experiencing the Cedar firestorm, I made it a priority to ensure our city continued to have the best trained and equipped fire department in San Diego County.  Mayor Randy Voepel formed and appointed me to a disaster preparedness committee.  With the Firefighters, new strategies were developed, and are now being implemented in Santee. (Click here to read my story about the Cedar Fire.)

Quality of Life:

After hearing promises of a Town Center Park for years, I made the park one of my priorities.  After nearly three years of work, and months of negotiating an agreement, Town Center Park is a reality.

 The 55 acre park will host mixed use soccer and football fields, and two arena-style soccer arenas.  There will be four baseball/softball fields surrounding a restaurant-type concession.
