TO THE EDITOR:
We in Orange County have been lucky to have Margaret Brown as a member of our Board of Commissioners for the last four years. One of the easiest things that we can do to try to preserve our quality of life here is to re-elect her. Margaret has shown tremendous leadership and commitment on the Board. She has worked very effectively on many of the real challenges that our area faces: protecting the environment, treating neighborhoods fairly, making sure that our public facilities are not overrun by growth and ensuring that local government is accessible to all citizens. She has approached this work in a manner that is sensible, good-natured and fundamentally decent. This manner has enabled her to work very effectively with the public and with other government agencies.
I urge you to vote Margaret Brown for Orange County commissioner.
