I. We are very fortunate to have San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan. We need our police chief to
keep"Leading the Force" and not be any Interim City Manager for an entire month when San Bernardino
is more than 100 police officers short of what is needed to protect and provide needed public safety and
assurance. Our lack in needed safety staffing is possibly why San Bernardino was targeted on 12/2/2015.
Even worse, over and over the media have focused on very negative comments, by"officials" and others
interviewed, about past crime (murder city in 1990's) and ongoing financial/economic woes/bankruptcy
and the terrible 12/2/15 tragedy. To advertise/tell the world our woes is bad enough, but to also spread how
much we are lacking in safety/police force is to invite additional crime/terrorism. More may be hurt or
killed, and there may be increased residential and business/school vandalism& crime even the rest of 2015
as Police Chief Burguan prepares to be the Interim City Manager and throughout January, 2016 knowing
the Police Chief is away from his command and the city is in bankruptcy, crisis mode from 12/2/15
tragedy, and residents and businesses/schools are therefore even more vulnerable.
II. We must also not accept another City Manager disaster. San Bernardino citizens and businesses are tired
of City Managers being hired that waste city money for their own salaries&benefits, only are present in
the City during their brief tenure with no real respect for the City's concerns and future...,then after a
couple years slyly exit before they are fired, and are allowed to determine their own exit date and
conditions... Enough is enough!!
Scott announced his resignation from the Burbank position[hired in Burbank in 20131
in November=Scott said the city faces"tough decisions"in its future. He said he hopes
the council can"do your best lo re tore dignity to our sometimes dysfunctional
communitialogue."
III. So, set aside gender biases and please be willing to hire an exceptionally qualified female. So, set aside
negative education and experience biases and be willing to hire someone who will provide sound fiscal
and operational management and has a Doctor of Public Health with a doctoral business management
cognate with Peter Drucker and Paul Cone. So, set aside any pain or pleasure in on-going bickering,
whining and blaming others..., and be willing to hire a pleasant and smiling, humorous, full of laughter
and joy team player who wants to work WITH all to the benefit of ALL. So, set aside your biases that
favor men who hop from one disastrous job performance to their next vulnerable City and be willing to
hire someone who was born and raised in San Bernardino, started taking college classes at San Bernardino
Valley College when she was a junior at Pacific High School, graduated as Valedictorian from Pacific,
etc., etc., and knows San Bernardino past, present potential & successes, and future sustainability and
pride with her real concern and compassion for all residents, business and schools.
Thank you. By selecting Dr. Laura Whisler for our new City Manager we
can all celebrate that the FORCE IS WITH J#A3ered Into Rec. at MCC Mt . 15
