Parks in Loomis

Loomis collects a park fee from ever new home in Loomis. The past policy has been to use this money at school sites. Funds has been used at Powers and Loomis elementary schools to improve the outdoor recreation facilities there. With over 400 new home planned for Loomis in the next 5 to 10 years the town will have over 1,5 million to spend on parks.

Loomis Business

Some of the members of the Town Council have shown little intrest in attracting business to Loomis. While they all say"we need more business" they do nothing. I suggested a downtown business plan be done to show what needs to be done to attact business but that idea fell on deaf ears. When I suggested a business committee they said that we have a Chamber of Commerce to do that. For several years I suggested a sign on the freeway to attract motorist to downtown, Again no support.
We need a council that wants to help develop business i nLoomis and is willing to put out the effort.;

Tern Limits

I did respond to this question on the other Loomis web site. Term limits in a small town like Loomis serve no purpose. Few people ever choose to run for the Town Council in the first place.
Term limits would not allowed council members wit hexperience to run after a few terms. If a qualified candidate want to run they can and le tthe voters determine if they should be elected.
An election is coming up next year, I hope that several people choose to run
