Letter: I support David Jinkens

Dear Editor, I support David Jinkens and want to emphasize his invaluable contributions to the South Lake Tahoe community and his experience as city manager. David is an excellent choice as a potential city council member. Although I no longer reside in South Lake Tahoe after 55 years, I maintain property ownership and have family and friends living there. David Jinkens would make an excellent city council member for South Lake Tahoe.

I hope you vote for David Jinkens. He will work hard for you to improve the quality of life in the city of South Lake Tahoe.

Actions speak louder than words, so let me briefly reference just a few of the many positive actions that happened under David’s leadership:

- A strong supporter of police and fire services.
- Established a 25% general fund reserve to cover unexpected and emergency costs.
- Supported the establishment of the fire training program at LTCC.
- Saved the city thousands of dollars by moving city offices to vacant space at the airport from expensive rented space.
- Lake View Commons Project

Sincerely,
Kathay Lovell
Former Mayor, City of South Lake Tahoe
