Carol Warren - City of Stanton - www.warrenforstanton.com

Carol Warren said no new taxes in 2008 and we elected her. Then Carol Warren tried to increase our utility tax by 50% in 2012, increased our sewer fee 2 years in a row without a vote of the people, reduced funding to our police and fire services and closed 2 of our parks. Then increased our taxes in 2014 and is in favor of keeping your sales taxes the highest in Orange County. We need to save Prop 13! Don't vote for Carol Warren.

Notes: Do not re-elect this candidate. Carol Warren tells you won't increase taxes then turns around and works to increase taxes. She have voted in favor of local Stanton taxes on basic needs like clothing, tap water, electricity, gas, phones, gas for our cars, etc.

Utility Tax - Did not keep her promise of 'no new taxes'. Instead voted to place a 50% increase on our ballot in June 2012. She put another tax on our ballot in 2014 too.

Business Retention - Promised to be business friendly but in 4 years a plan has not been produced. Visual observation has shown more businesses closed on Beach Blvd. and around the city. Some highlights include the closure of Ralphs Grocery, 2 Albertsons, Sizzler, Freshia, Red Robin and what used to be major shopping centers are now almost completly vacant. This reduces our sales tax base. She has no plan to turn this around.

Unemployment - We still have one of the highest unemployment rates out of all Orange County cities and she has not created a plan to turn this around in 8 years.

Safety Services - Cut funding to our Sheriff and Fire departments leading to less sworn officers, crime supression and fire personel. Our taxes didn't go down but our safety services did. She has no plan to turn this around.

Other - Sent mailers and made phone calls to promote the utility tax increase and television programming tax. If it were up to her a family of 5 would be paying around $500 a year on the city utility tax and cell phone tax combined.
