    ASSOCIATED BUILDERS AND CONTRACTORS OF SAN DIEGO ENDORSE JUNE CUTTER FOR STATE ASSEMBLY (San Diego, CA) – Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego today announced its endorsement of June Cutter for Assembly. “June Cutter is our candidate of choice for Assembly District 77,” said Shandon Harbour, President and CEO of Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego. “As an experienced litigator who has represented employers and construction industry businesses for nearly two decades, June has a deep knowledge and understanding of the challenges faced by our members, as well as the issues which affect all working Californians.” Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) is a national trade association representing nearly 21,000 merit shop contractors, subcontractors, material suppliers and construction-related professionals in 70 chapters across the United States, including the San Diego Chapter (ABCSD). ABCSD is located in a state-of-the-art facility in Poway, California, including offices, classrooms, online training labs, and a 11,000 square foot, hands-on construction training lab. “I am proud to accept the endorsement of Associated Builders and Contractors of San Diego,” said June Cutter. “In Sacramento, I will champion the interests of working men and women, and their families, in District 77 and throughout the State of California.” Momentum continues to grow behind June Cutter’s campaign as more prominent elected leaders and groups endorse June Cutter for Assembly. June has already been endorsed by the San Diego County Republican Party, the California Women’s Leadership Association, Assembly Republican Leader Marie Waldron, Senate Republican Leader Shannon Grove, San Diego Councilman Chris Cate, San Diego Supervisor Jim Desmond, and many other local and state leaders.

  • Letter to Gov. Newsom Regarding Drought – May 20, 2021
    May 20, 2021 Honorable Gavin Newsom Governor, State of California State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 Dear Governor Newsom: On behalf of the San Diego County Water Authority, we wish to share our appreciation for your leadership to help California navigate through water shortage and drought conditions. We sympathize with the local conditions experienced in those counties in which you’ve declared drought emergency conditions, and we are particularly grateful that you have publicly shared your observations regarding the need to evaluate water shortage and drought conditions on a county-by-county or region-by-region basis. As you know very well, every region within our huge state is different in terms of climate, water supply portfolio, investments in drought-resilient water suppliers, hydrology, and ability to withstand prolonged water shortage conditions. As you have framed, one-size-fits-all solutions to many issues facing California – including water shortage or drought conditions – don’t work well and are unnecessary. We applaud your focus on water resiliency, sustainability, and bringing the right set of tools to address very complex drought issues. Your “Water Resilience Portfolio” serves as an important framework to guide efforts to insulate communities and regions from drought. Importantly, we’ve all learned lessons from the most recent prolonged drought that can be used to help guide our collective drought preparation and response during 2021 and into future years, and there are opportunities available to continue improving drought resilience and sustainability going forward: • Localism should be determinative. As you’ve noted publicly throughout your communications related to the COVID-19 pandemic, different regions of California have different needs and localism should be determinative in the state’s approaches to addressing broad policy issues.

CITY OF SAN DIEGO OFFICE OF COUNCIL PRESIDENT MYRTLE COLE FOURTH COUNCIL DISTRICT DATE: January 29, 2018 TO: Honorable City Councilmembers FROM: Council President Myrtle Cole fl/( !:J rlLe.,, Co-le,, SUBJECT: 2018 Rules Committee Priorities I appreciate the opportunity to share my 2018 priorities for the Committee on Rules. I look forward to working with the Committee to address important matters facing our city. The Committee on Rules addresses responsibilities that include the Charter, Rules of Council, open government, elections and ballot measures, annexations, boards and commissions, council-initiated matters, communications, customer service and public outreach. Elections and Ballot Measures Review ballot measure proposals that will create additional permanent supportive housing units and help address our city's homeless and affordable housing crisis. Review Charter Amendments Review amendments approved in 2017 to ensure that the accompanying San Diego Municipal Codes are also updated to reflect the amendments. For instance, in November 2016 the voters approved Proposition G, an initiative that amended the City Charter that changed the name of the Citizens' Review Board on Police Practices to Community Review Board on Police Practices. However, one year later the San Diego Municipal Code has not been updated to reflect the change. An ordinance to update the San Diego Municipal Code was discussed at the Public Safety and Livable Neighborhoods Committee on April 26, 2017 however, no ordinance has been presented to date.

Friends, Thank you to District 1 for giving me the honor and responsibility to represent you on City Council. I do not take this role lightly; I am here to serve you and will not lose sight of that commitment. I look forward to working side by side with my colleagues, the Mayor, and City Attorney.
