Nov. 2022 Election: Q&A with Tommy Hough, candidate San Diego City Council District 6 [Opinion]
Between now and early October when voting gets underway, The San Diego Union-Tribune Editorial Board is planning to publish dozens of candidate Q&As and nearly two dozen commentaries connected to a handful of San Diego city ballot measures and seven state propositions on the Nov. 8 election. Keep checking back as we fill in this voter guide.
A: We have to start asking questions more relevant to the outcomes we need as part of the Climate Action Plan, beginning with greater electrification and rooftop solar.
Q: What steps would you take to address the city’s housing crisis? What’s your view of using empty commercial buildings or vacant malls for housing? A: Even with help from county, state and federal resources, revenue will always be an overriding issue, but the city does seem to be making small-scale progress in pursuing permanent supportive housing solutions with on-site wraparound services to address psychological, addiction or economic issues that may have prompted our unsheltered neighbors to have wound up on the street, and address the post-traumatic stress disorder they may have accumulated.
A: We need more police officers, and we need to pay them better — a lot better, in fact, to be competitive with other departments. We need about 2,200 officers to fully put forward a bare minimum of basic public safety in a city as large as San Diego, but we’re realistically hovering around 1,500 officers.
