Candidate Statement

By M.L. Maxx Stalheim

We have a choice to make on November 4th. We can choose to set a course toward a vibrant, healthy, fiscally secure Imperial Beach. We can choose to secure the future of our unique coastal community. We can choose to keep Imperial Beach moving forward.

Vision + With your vote: we will support local businesses and produce new sources of sales and hotel tax revenues for our City; we will protect our neighborhoods and small-town atmosphere; we will foster our natural resources; we will increase public participation by re-instating the Planning Commission; and we will create a more open and efficient local government.

Experience + Senior Planner, City of San Diego. I have worked with a variety of groups and individuals over the course of more than twenty years as a public servant, and have brought people together to solve problems and achieve community goals. I have the leadership skills needed to encourage new development and improve our quality of life, and the ability to manage complex tasks and oversee lean budgets.

Community Service + Imperial Beach Tidelands Advisory Committee, San Diego County League of Conservation Voters

Thank you for your consideration and for the opportunity to serve!
