Monterey County Weekly Endorses Bruce


By kevin - Posted on 16 October 2008

The Monterey County Weekly recently endorsed Bruce Delgado, stating the following:

"Bruce Delgado, who lost narrowly in a 2004 run against Ila
Mettee-McCutchon, is the clear choice for the job. He is an advocate
for smart growth, has a vision for downtown’s revitalization and is a
strong critic of the city’s recent handout to The Dunes developers. His
opponent, Gary Wilmot, while knowledgeable about local government,
seems naïve about his relationship to developers– and his own conflicts
of interest. Wilmot runs a newspaper in Marina with partner Bart Bruno,
one of the early promoters of The Dunes whose company could make big
money from the project. The city has been spending more than it’s
bringing in, and Delgado seems ready to tackle that problem. Wilmot, on
the other hand, is in denial."
