San Benito County Registrar calls for respectful election among neighbors.

Letter: Measure J is ‘bait and switch’ initiative

I strongly oppose Measure J because it is a bait and switch initiative based on junk science and it’s bad public policy that could open the county to millions of dollars in lawsuits and payments.

Letter: Snow is right person to deal with a crisis

My name is Monty Stanley. Keith Snow worked for my companies for approximately 20 years. He managed day to day operations, for our disposal company. Keith had responsibilities of dealing with public officials on a ongoing basis. He also worked for one our other companies doing highway construction. I would like to formally endorse Keith Snow for mayor of Hollister. I feel he would be a great asset to the community due to the fact that above all, he is a VERY HONEST INDIVIDUAL. You could trust Keith Snow with the lives of your family and your last dollar – and when you came back it would still be there. He would not be your typical politician. He would not be the person to sit there and lie directly to your face. Keith Snow always believed that if you watch your pennies your dollars would watch themselves. With this new Ebola outbreak going on, Keith would be the perfect person to watch out for your families' well-being in this time of crisis in our country. He also has shared with us many ideas as to literally get a double bang for the buck in city expenditures. He often says that he can go to a Costco and negotiate a price down where the masses would be happy to pay price listed. It is common knowledge that the city's current staff does not shop for the best bang for the buck. Keith feels, when he was spending our companies money, he would protect it like it was his own.

Guest View: New chairman’s speech was a ‘breath of fresh air’

What a breath of fresh air it was for me to hear our chairperson of the board of supervisors at the opening of the New Year. Mr. Rivas gave a brief but compelling presentation of his hopes and aims for the New Year for San Benito County residents. He is a most articulate and rational spokesperson for his philosophy of county government and his aims for this county. Most of all he is a person that speaks clearly, simply and truthfully and from a genuine commitment to the well being of the people of San Benito County. He is a supervisor we can TRUST.
