“We've seen already what they can
do. Now it is time to see what 'new blood' can do.” - LaWanna
Montgomery
In her third
attempt at city office, Mayoral Candidate LaWanna Montgomery feels
she has a good chance of becoming Elk Grove's next mayor
According
to her statements in a today's interview, Mongomery
says her vision is to see Elk Grove become a “one-stop shop” for
citizens.
“I pose the
question: 'Does Elk Grove have everything we need?'”, Montgomery
said. “I believe we need more.”
Montgomery stated
the need for fifty-thousand new, living wage jobs and additional
services to achieve her aims, echoing the statements of many other
candidates. Her plan for achieving her goals is to bring people
together. “I'm a team player,” Montgomery said, “ a person who
works with everyone well and believes in getting something done.”
But Montgomery
feels the city is stuck. “I believe...there's always a selective
group, the same group since [the year] 2000. We've seen already what
they can do. Now it is time to see what 'new blood' can do.”
The question for
voters is whether Montgomery has the background to create any
meaningful progress as mayor. Besides her former campaigns for
office, the candidate claimed in her interview no past or ongoing
involvement in city affairs.
Montgomery cited
her success and experience as CEO of the Reach Learning Center
working in cities across the state as her most important
contribution. “If I can do so much without it (the Mayor's
office), I know I can do more with it.”
Montgomery also
discussed her views on the Promenade Mall, the Sphere of Influence,
and the new City Center, campaign finance and more, in the interview.

Ms. Montgomery has failed to become involved with the local community in all the time she has lived here. She has demonstrated a lack of understanding of local issues in both her previous attempts to run for office. There is no evidence, in my opinion, that she has any of the experience necessary for the job.
