Bruce McPherson announced that he has officially launched his re-election campaign for Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors District 5.
“I am very proud of all that we have accomplished during my first term,” McPherson said. “Working collaboratively with people from throughout the 5th District and across Santa Cruz County we have been able to make our community a better place to live, work and play.”
During his first term in office McPherson has focused on a variety of important issues. He was a lead supporter for placing more sheriff’s deputies on patrol, brought closure to an 8-year old lawsuit between the City of Scotts Valley and the County of Santa Cruz, secured the donation of land for a new library in Felton, helped create the County’s new economic development department and delivered much needed road and lighting improvements along the Highway 9 corridor.
“I am been deeply honored to serve the people of the San Lorenzo Valley, Scotts Valley, and Santa Cruz but there is still much work to be done,” said McPherson. “I believe my dedication to the community, ability to bring people together to solve challenging issues and strong leadership skills make me uniquely qualified to continue representing the 5th District.”
McPherson is campaigning for the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors District 5, which includes the San Lorenzo Valley, Scotts Valley and portions of Santa Cruz. Election Day is Tuesday, June 7, 2016.
