Littlefield: Vote for Dubauskas and Kwasman for council

Councilwoman Kathy Littlefield, Councilman Barry Graham and I are endorsing two new council candidates, Jan Dubauskas and Adam Kwasman, in the upcoming city primary election. Here's why:

Scottsdale's special character and high quality of life are threatened by three bad trends coming out of City Hall: overdevelopment, overspending and over-taxation. If they are not halted these "three O's" will turn Scottsdale into just another dense urban jungle in the not-too-distant future!

The only way to bring a halt to these bad trends is to elect a truly resident-friendly city council majority. Every council candidate claims to be resident friendly while they are campaigning, but their voting records once they get in office often tell a different story.

The two worst offenders are current Councilmembers Durham and Caputi, who voted against the residents 100% of the time. Fortunately, both are running for re-election, which gives voters an opportunity to vote them off the city council and replace them with newcomers Jan Dubauskas and Adam Kwasman, who are committed to protecting our city’s special character and high quality of life from the "three O's." Voting for Jan Dubauskas and Adam Kwasman in the upcoming primary election is literally an investment in Scottsdale's future.

Please pass this info on to your friends and neighbors who are Scottsdale voters.
