We are West Covina Neighbors!
We are West Covina residents. We live here. Many of us work and play here.
We pay the taxes for the services the city provides--or does not provide.
We focus on West Covina’s leadership and financial management because leadership and management directly impact the services we receive, the taxes we pay, and, most importantly, our safety and well-being.
Our major concern is how the City Council responds to the State Auditor’s recommendations intended to improve West Covina's fiscal health and the City Council’s decisions that can and do impact our city's financial stability—and in turn, resident quality of life.
Working together West Covina Neighbors stopped, by an 80% to 20% vote, the severely flawed Measure WC sponsored by the city’s public safety unions which would have increased our city sales tax and reduced the city’s ability to manage its budget. By continuing to work together, we can continue to encourage our elected officials to put the city's financial stability over pet projects and self-interest.
