Vision And Mission Statement

  • “My visions for the 8th District include improving safety in our neighborhoods and support of local law enforcement, driving a stronger local economy with long-standing local businesses and increased employment opportunities, approaching city budget decisions with sensible spending priorities, and taking advantage of the success and experience of those in our community when making city decisions”.
  • “If elected, I will advocate new priorities in public safety resources that reflect the needs of the departments and the expectations of the 8th District and other Long Beach communities”.
  • “We must all participate in the big decisions that will shape our futures, our families’ futures. It takes a close-knit community of concerned citizens to increase the quality of our life and the lives of our future generations”.

Issues

  • Wesley Turnbow is concerned about the increasing crime rates in the 8th district, and believes that the police and fire departments need appropriate funding to protect the district’s neighborhood.
  • If elected, Turnbow wants to bring more businesses to the district to create more job opportunities for its residents.
  • The disconnection between City Hall and the neighborhood is a problem Turnbow highlights, a relationship Wesley Turnbow wants to repair if elected to City Council.
