Today, the San Luis Obispo Tribune endorsed Councilman John Ashbaugh for a second term on the San Luis Obispo City Council.
“… We also commend Ashbaugh for his creativity and compassion — for example, he spoke in favor of trying to convert the old Sunny Acres orphanage into living quarters for people with mental illnesses. And, while we haven’t agreed with all of his positions on ticketing homeless who sleep in vehicles parked on city streets, he’s been a strong supporter of the proposed homeless services center on South Higuera, as well as the safe parking program at the Prado Day Center.
Ashbaugh has been a strong voice for working families, as well as for the mentally ill, the elderly, the sick and others in need of safety net services. At the same time, he appreciates the need to strengthen the city’s economic base by allowing growth and removing some of the impediments to development.
The Tribune supports the re-election of John Ashbaugh to the San Luis Obispo City Council.”
