STATE OF THE COUNTY ADDRESS 2010

CHAIRWOMAN PAM SLATER-PRICE

WATCH THE ADDRESS HERE: http://www.sdcounty.ca.gov/Portal/News/2010/Feb/021110SOC2010.html

FULL TEXT:

Good evening, and welcome to beautiful Irwin M. Jacobs’ Qualcomm Hall.

January 3rd marked the 157th year of County government.

We have accomplished a lot since the first Board of Supervisors rode to meetings by horseback, coach or wagon.

There have been good times and bad but we have always weathered the storm.

 At the very center of today’s storm is the most difficult economy we have faced in decades. It has forced many companies to change the way they do business, and many households to cut back on spending.

Supervisor Pam Slater-Price

At the first meeting of 2010, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to select me as Chair of the Board and lead the County during what many expect to be a fiscally challenging year for the County of San Diego.

The board also unanimously voted Supervisor Bill Horn, District 5, as Vice Chairman and Supervisor Ron Roberts, District 4, as Chair Pro Tem.

My chairmanship succeeds Supervisor Dianne Jacob, District 2. Supervisor Jacob passed the torch to me in the best shape we could be in given the conditions between a state government in turmoil and declining local tax revenue.

Those East County Folks Sure are Friendly!

Dave Allan and Dianne Jacob get friendly at the East County Albondigas gathering on Friday, November 6.

Councilman   Dave  Allan

Barry Jantz reports he was contacted by La Mesa councilman Dave Allan today. The La Mesa lawmaker has re-considered and will NOT run for SD County supervisor, 2nd district, against incumbent Republican Dianne Jacob.

Barry served 6 years on the La Mesa city council with Mr. Allan, so the credibility level is very high.

Barry’s full report is here:

Allan will now not run for Supervisor

Councilman   Allan

This afternoon, David M. Allan of La Mesa filed a “Candidate Intention” statement to run for San Diego county supervisor, 2nd district, in 2012. The form is on file at the San Diego Voter Registrar. (La Mesa councilman Dave Allan is pictured at the Left.)

That may mean a race against the current incumbent, Republican Supervisor Dianne Jacob of Jamul, should she seek a new term.

David M. Allan is a registered Democrat according to Registrar records. This is likely La Mesa City Councilman Dave Allan. He was recently described by the Union-Tribune as “Dave Allan, who has spent a career promoting consolidation as firefighter, labor union leader and La Mesa councilman.”

Time to Go, Bob.

Many in San Diego have said for years that Bob Watkins had a promising future in elective office.  He did of course serve on the County Board of Education, but that clearly was for him a low-level stepping stone to something higher profile, such as County Supervisor, State office, or even Congress.

As far back as 1988, Watkins toyed with a shot at State Assembly, but in more recent years hung his future on his stature as a well-known downtown establishment business type, GOP donor, Lincoln Clubber and member of the San Diego Regional Airport Authority, while biding his time on the County Ed Board.
