Hi, my friends,
Here I am trying to address questions and topics that have come up during my time as Councilmember. I don’t have a ton of time to write lots of posts, but here are a few recent bits.
If you have a specific question, please email me at jbleep@townofwindsor.ca.gov, and mention you were reading my blog here. Understand that I get a lot of mail, and if I don’t respond to you, it’s not because I am ignoring or ghosting you, it is because I just don’t have enough time, or I am registering your input as one vote on some subject at hand that is generating a lot of response. I do read everything.
It’s a pleasure to have you here on my blog!

Councilmember Windsor District 3
