East County Fire and Rescue Commission, Position 2
It’s time for a change on the East County Fire and Rescue Commission.
Thomas Gianatasio is challenging incumbent Victor Rasmussen, who has been part of the district board for more than 30 years.
As ECFR prepares to deal with serious budget challenges related to staffing, apparatus and future capital projects, the organization is at a point where fresh ideas and new perspectives are greatly needed.
What is necessary is a person who is able to think outside of the box, take a hard look at expenses, and make some serious plans for the future.
With his diverse background in fire services, business and community volunteerism, Gianatasio would add a strong and unique voice to the commission. Voters should support Gianatasio for Position 2.
East County Fire and Rescue Commission, Position 4
Current ECFR Commissioner Martha Martin is running against Ray Wygal for Position 4.
It’s very clear that Wygal, a newcomer to local politics and the community service arena, just can’t compete with Martin, who has been actively involved with a number of local issues and organizations over the years.
