After 23 years of living in Los Banos, I’ve learned the electorate can make very savvy decisions about our schools and city.
I’m confident the Three Amigos, Mayor Paul Llanez and councilmembers Brett Jones, and Doug Begonia, will be valiantly ousted in November. Thereafter, will be the firing of chaotic City Manager Josh Pinheiro, who has a record of incompetency.
Our city has lost so many dedicated employees at all levels, because of Josh. It’s an HR nightmare that filters down to lack of services to our community.
We’re fortunate that two qualified candidates for mayor, Mike Amabile and Refugio Llamas filed to replace Mayor Llanez.
Please do not be fooled by the ego-fueled campaign against Deborah Lewis.
I look forward to the results on Nov. 5, this community will not disappoint. I hope to see the headlines “Out with the Three Amigos, and re-election of Deborah Lewis”. Appointments will follow to complement our city council and right the ship once again.
Respectfully submitted,
— Baldo Salcido, Los Banos, CA
