Letter: Mayoral Candidate Brown Supports 'Slow And Smart Growth'
"Karla [Brown] is the best candidate to protect our town from sprawl."

A letter to the editor from Brian Pullen:
Other mayoral candidates may claim to be against rampant growth but the voting record against slow and smart growth speaks for itself.
Over the past 8 years as a Councilmember or Vice Mayor of Pleasanton, Karla has been waiting on the planning of the East Side until accurate regional housing numbers come forward. This is the most prudent and thoughtful approach. Approving a large scale development of million dollar plus homes is not a realistic solution for creating state mandated affordable housing in Pleasanton. Karla’s consistent record on slow and smart growth planning is a testament to her commitment to preserving our quality of life.
