2024 Endorsements
"The city continues to run well. Financial reserves are up 50 percent since Covid, annual hotel tax revenue is up from pre-pandemic 2019 levels, Carmel met a grace period deadline in getting its housing element approved, and four of the city employee unions are under contract. Potter knows city, county and statewide policies like the back of his hand. He has relationships up and down the government food chain...Potter wants one last term, and we think he’s earned it."
