Whitehead wants to raise your taxes.

During Prop 420, amongst the leadership of that effort, we held various opinions about what would happen with the overage from the tax if the DDC was not built. Many of us believed strongly that the remaining land was too expensive, and too nondescript, to be worth the ridiculous inflated cost. Note that at this point Whitehead was campaigning for Council, and aligned but not involved particularly with the Prop 420 effort. She has since followed Mary Manross down the path of "finish the Preserve, no matter the cost." This is in keeping with her well-earned track record for fiscal looseness (free concerts, free CPR course, free access to ballfields). Again, Whitehead wants to raise your taxes to buy more land up north, and give away services that most fiscal conservatives feel should be pay-for-service. The reality is the Preserve needs maintenance, and investment in fire prevention. The legacy of Whitehead might just be expensive, burned patches of land because she put all the money preventing development rather than wildfire resources and prevention access.
