Elect:
                    David L. Anderson, Sr.
                          for San Leandro 
                     City Council, District 1
As an elected Oakland School Board Member for the Oakland Unified School District in 1987 through 1992, I have had the great pleasure and honor of representing my District in Oakland.  I believe during my time as a school board member, I have made a difference that are needed to maintain ands enhance the learning of our children.  I have worked with diverse groups of people (parents, teachers, administrators, classified staff, professional organizations, business government agencies, community and religious groups) to improve the quality of education in the Oakland Unified School District.  I also served as a Commissioner with the Life Enrichment Program with the City of Oakland and made unprecedented changes that were critically needed to maintain and enhance the program.

I moved to San Leandro in 2006.  I am now taking the next step to run for City Council, District 1.  I am committed to making the City of San Leandro a better place today and tomorrow!

I have gone door to door and met with hundreds and hundreds of people including business owners, community groups, homeowners' association.  We all share the same isues and views of San Leandro.  For the past six months, I have been hearing we need to save the hospital, repair our streets, increase the number of police officers and firefighters to reduce the crime in our neighborhood.  We also need to our youth to excel in school and provide more after school programs., i.e. tutoring programs, sports, and other extra curricular activities and a healthy environment. As I have gone door to door, I have heard that there are some false accusations that have been put out by other groups of people to attack me.  I want to assure you that these rumors are false accusations. We must work together to bring positive and effective change.  I will advocate and ensure that serious issues in San Leandro are addressed.  Furthermore, in the midst of economic recession, San Leandro needs a strong, experienced leader to address our issues and concerns in an effective and efficient manner.

• I will work in collaboration with the community to:
• Save San Leandro Hospital.
• Provide Pathways to economic stability.
• Develop San Leandro Marina to attract quallity restaurants and hotels.
• Provide strong positive role models for City of San Leandro staff and the community to contribute to our families.
• Reinforce for fiscal stability and protect working families.
• Increrase the number of police and firefighters to make San Leandro a ploace where residents are safe.  We also need to reduce the crime in our neighborhood.
• Advocate for the needs of our senior citizens.
               Now, you have a choice!
