New year means new resolutions

SOUTH COUNTY — A new year means South Monterey County residents are making resolutions and goals for 2019, among those making New Year’s resolutions include local city officials, high school students, librarians and others.

King City Mayor Mike LeBarre — “Your council and city administration have worked as a team to implement many positive improvements for a stronger community, a safer city and a local government you can trust. My resolution would be to build on that progress focusing on community, safety and trust. In addition, continue strengthening our relationships with our state and federal representatives to help direct more resources to King City that will enhance our quality of life.”

Greenfield Mayor Lance Walker — “My resolution for 2019 is to be the best mayor possible. To listen to the community and make the right decisions for Greenfield and the residents who live here. Also to be the best person possible, to be healthy, laugh loud and live life long.”

Soledad Mayor Pro Tem Alejandro Chavez — “Professionally, to focus on getting information out to constituents more consistently and in more ways. To hold regular coffee and/or meet-and-greet meetings with the community. Additionally, to work smarter and more efficiently to get better results for our community. Make our community even better. Personally, to have better communication with family, friends and loved ones. Additionally, to eat a bit healthier and work out a bit more. Have more fun with my family and make more memories.”

Professionally, my goals are to continue to make the citizens of Greenfield feel safe and connected to their police department. And, to say thank you to those who make this possible.”
