Smart Voter Official Statement for Maria Chavarria-Halpern

Candidate for
Council Member to Succeed Kathy Salazar; City of Montebello

This is a copy of information submitted to elections officials by the candidate

I have lived in Montebello for the last 30 years. I have my own business as a Insurance Broker. I have worked with the community many years. I believe in Community service and belonged to several service clubs in Montebello like the Historical Society of Montebello, Rotary Club of Montebello, Chamber of Commerce of Montebello and the YMCA.

During this past year I was appointed to the Planning Commission and I have learned how important it is to have growth for our City. There is a General Plan for the City but we need people on Council that are Visionary to see that growth happens in a responsible way. I know I am that person. My priority will be to bring revitilization to Whittier Boulevard and our Montebello Mall. We also need good Restaurants like Chili's, Lucille's, Mimi Café, etc.

I humbly ask for your vote on February 23, 2010. /s/ Maria Chavarria-Halpern

Creo en el servicio a la comunidad y he pertenecido a varios clubes de servicio en Montebello como son: la Sociedad Histórica de Montebello, el Club Rotario de Montebello y la Asociación de Jóvenes Cristianos (YMCA, por sus siglas en inglés).

Durante este año pasado fui nombrada a la Comisión de Planificación, y he aprendido lo importante que es tener un crecimiento en nuestra ciudad. Existe el Plan General para la Ciudad, pero necesitamos gente en el Concejo que sea visionaria para asegurarnos de que el crecimiento ocurra de una manera responsable. Yo soy la persona indicada para eso. Mi prioridad será la revitalización de Whittier Boulevard y de nuestro Centro Comercial Montebello. Además, necesitamos buenos restaurantes como son Chili's, Lucille's, Mimi's Café, etc.
