All my neighbors and I have been watching this council majority of the past couple years with increasing disappointment. I think some of you think you are acting in the interests of the city but the lack of transparency is unacceptable. The private meetings, voting for the Forty Niners, and obscene campaign spending makes you look like Forty Niner pawns. Many Santa Clarans feel this way. The way to dispel our concerns is to adopt plans such as the Mayor's. Which she must be bound to as well.

Mayor's proposal for a "Santa Clara Anti-Corruption Reform Plan" should include Mayor Lisa Gillmor. Because, she too, is facing scrutiny and ethical questions from her colleagues, residents and workers after she lobbied Gov.
Gavin Newsom, without knowledge of the council, to help a major developer skirt paying higher wages—months before the firm began a spending spree to support her reelection. The epitome of "Unsportsmanlike", not fair to her council colleagues.
