 I'm Mike Dawson
I am running for Monterey City Council and I am asking for your vote. As your Council person, I promise to bring fresh ideas, openness, integrity, and sound common sense to the position.
I have the experience, energy and management skills to lead the City of Monterey. For the last several years, I have been involved in improving our way of life on the local, county-wide and regional levels:
Local:
· Chair, City of MontereyArchitectural Review Committee
· Past President, Alta Mesa Neighborhood Association (four terms)
· Waterfront Master Plan Subcommittee
· North Fremont Street Specific Plan Subcommittee
· Area Captain, Community Emergency Response Team (CERT)
· Program Mentor, Monterey High School Monterey Academy of Oceanographic Science (MAOS)

· Co-Chair, Monterey County Business Council Water Working Group
· City of Salinas Historic Review Board
Regional:

My diverse life experiences allow me to strike a balance with all the competing interests that a leader in Monterey faces every day.
I will bring the neighborhoods’ perspective to the council
I am a fiscal conservative who will watch our dollars
I am an independent voice
I am a businessman who is local business-friendly
