For Brisbane: Dana Dillworth
 	 		
For Brisbane: Dana Dillworth | October 31, 2001 | SFBG News             
 
If Measure I passes, Brisbane will become San Francisco's partner 
in operating a municipal utility district. The small city has a 
history of standing up to utility monopolies and needs a strong 
voice for public power on the city council. That's why we're 
endorsing environmental activist Dana Dillworth for Brisbane City 
Council. 

Dillworth is the only one of six candidates for three open seats 
who supports Measure I. She has been active in the MUD campaign 
from the start and has put considerable energy into promoting the 
plan in Brisbane. She is also opposed to creating a redevelopment 
area in downtown Brisbane and opposes the proposed water and 
sewer rate increase that would hike local rates as much as 200 
percent. 

A majority of the current Brisbane City Council opposes the MUD, 
and since Mayor Clarke Conway, a MUD supporter, is leaving 
office, there isn't much chance that the balance of power will 
change. But Dillworth will be a needed voice for the environment 
and public power, and we're pleased to endorse her.
