MAYOR<br />
HEIDI HARMON<br />
As we face the health and economic challenges of COIVD19, San<br />
Luis Obispo needs proven leadership, creativity, and collaboration<br />
to move us forward. Serving as your Mayor over the past four years,<br />
I have a proven track record of significant progress on issues, values,<br />
and priorities important to our community. I pledge to uphold this<br />
commitment in my next term.<br />
We have, and we will, continue to support the creation of more<br />
housing affordability, expand access to open spaces, work with small<br />
businesses and employees on challenges, build relationships with<br />
regional partners to strengthen economic recovery, reinterpret the<br />
unique culture of our downtown, prioritize fiscal responsibility,<br />
spearhead sustainability policies that attract meaningful clean jobs,<br />
and proactively refocus City staff to support our community in this<br />
unprecedented time.<br />
As Mayor, I will work to ensure San Luis Obispo is a dynamic, safe,<br />
and resilient City of belonging with a solution-oriented mission<br />
for the future, protecting the health of our residents, and providing<br />
support for local businesses to thrive. As a Cal Poly graduate, former<br />
business owner, and mother, I share your vision to evolve and adapt<br />
our City during times of change while preserving what makes <strong>SLO</strong><br />
special.<br />
Let’s move San Luis Obispo forward together.<br />
MAYOR<br />
DONALD HEDRICK<br />
The biggest issue the city faces today is not in the city’s daily operating<br />
activities, but the increasing changes trickling down from the levels of<br />
government above our city. We have a renegade cadre of agents of the<br />
international corporate elite that have their goal being the destruction of<br />
this country and its democracy. We as a city need to resist this erosion of<br />
our Constitution and our rights that is in process by the elite that want<br />
to replace our country’s forefathers creation with a retouched version of<br />
dictatorship. It is treason to favor these international based programs<br />
such as identified in the UN’s Agenda 21 that express the goal of the<br />
dismantling of our country’s industry and our rights. We need to have our<br />
city government cease the rubber stamping of these subversive doctrines<br />
that are coming down the line and come up with local solutions.<br />
The first thing would be to appoint myself to the APCD and bring the<br />
issue of the international fouling of our skies with the geo-engineering<br />
that is genocide against the people of the world. Our protest of the<br />
poisoning of our land, water, crops, and lungs with the patented processes<br />
that the corporate elite are using to poison the land, water, crops, and the<br />
air we breathe. We need to resist the lure of the grants that promote the<br />
objectives of the UN’s Agenda 21 which are working their way down to<br />
the cities. We need to speak out against such seditious programs and their<br />
grants with strings attached that are designed to take away our citizen<br />
rights. We as a city need to take back control of our governments and<br />
get rid of the criminals that want to replace our democracy with the new<br />
world order.<br />
