Barbara Del Roca
Hello neighbors!
Many of you know me, but for those of you who don�t, my name is Barbara Del Roca, and I am a candidate for President of the Pine Oaks Community Board. I�m running because we need a change in leadership, and I feel that I am the best person to provide that change. This summer I planned and supervised the Pine Oaks Founder�s Day events, and had one of our most successful ever, with only a few handfuls of hospitalizations. Tara Solomon can�t say that. For the past eight years I have also provided leadership to the Caring Wishes Foundation, which helps fulfill the dreams of local children who otherwise would not have that opportunity. It�s this sense of caring and leadership that makes me best qualified to serve as your President. While Jim Stillman is a good man and a friend, quite frankly it is time for a change. He talks incessantly about clearing our porches of �eyesores,� which quite frankly reminds me too much of the time he wanted to remove all the bike racks from the neighborhood, and hired Tony Daniels to surreptitiously remove all of the bikes and bike racks in the middle of the night. I know that I certainly don�t want to wake up on November 8 to find that my porch has been stripped bare of my plants and porch swing just because Jim thinks they�re �eyesores.� The choice is clear. Vote Barbara Del Roca on November 7, for a new Pine Oaks.
Terry Otter
My name is Terry Otter and I am running for Pine Oaks president because I think the neighborhood leash laws are not strict enough and I would like to change that. I am not against dogs in fact I like dogs very much my cousin has a dog and he is real nice. I think his name is Jeremy. Too often I am taking my evening walk around the neighborhood and I see dogs without leashes or dogs who are allowed to use the bathroom without it being cleaned. I am running for Pine Oaks president because if I am elected we will have stricter leash and pet cleanup laws which I think is important. Jim and Barbara are nice people but please vote for me. Thank you.
