NPDuring the last several weeks, many residents have been calling me to ask which city council candidate(s) actively worked with me and Mayor Hunter to help us defeat the North Park housing project last Feb. 28.

As most of you know, Moorpark residents voted against North Park by a 3-to-1 margin.

There is only one candidate currently running for City Council who worked hard with us and the scores of other volunteers to defeat North Park and that was Bob Peskay.

Besides joining us as a leader in the "No on North Park" campaign, Bob Peskay has many other impressive and outstanding qualities.

Mr. Peskay has over 40 years experience in financial management, is a veteran officer who served in the U.S. Navy, has significant experience leading a vibrant Chamber of Commerce prior to moving to Moorpark, and has four years experience as a Moorpark Planning Commissioner.

Peskay is a thoughtful thinker who weighs the pros and cons of issues and realizes that there is not always one simple way to address or solve a problem. He "does his homework" to get at the heart of the issues and will work locally and regionally to try to best address the main issues we face, especially the difficult problem of truck traffic.

You should know that Bob also shares the view of many, including me, that we need to keep Moorpark's smalltown semirural charm, by growing sensibly but not too fast.

I will welcome whomever is elected and work with them in a professional manner. However, I give my hearty and full endorsement to Bob Peskay.

Please join me in voting for Bob Peskay for Moorpark City Council on Nov. 7. Roseann Mikos Mayor Pro Tem Moorpark
