Thank god there is an alternative to Susannah Meyer. She has done next to nothing for the past 4 years except follow Jovita Mendoza. She can’t think for herself. She cant even have a fundraiser event without Jovita by her side. Brentwood has gone downhill and turning into Antioch under this council. Time for new people.
I wish he would say more about what his platform is and where he stands on Bridle Gate. Had high hopes for Susannah Meyer but she has been a giant disappointment. She is tried to Jovita Mendoza who has ruined Brentwood. Can’t support Meyer at this point.
Brentwood has totally turned into the next antioch! and this guy has been helping with that change. we have all the crappy shopping and fast food like antioch. Nothing out of the ordinary. He has helped approve over the years! time to sell!
