A professional fraud investigator who wants SMART goals with named owners and timelines, aggressive code enforcement, and a forensic audit — especially for the west side and downtown.

The fraud investigator said a strategic plan is only as good as its execution — he wants clear ownership of each initiative, deliverable timelines, aggressive code enforcement, and a forensic audit to ensure fiscal transparency.

She questioned what came out of the December council retreat, said the plan is too vague with results pushed to March 2027, and pressed for renegotiating the county property-tax split and hiring local Inland Empire consultants.

Former councilmember who pulled no punches: the city has approved strategic plans repeatedly without implementing any of them, and she called the current effort 'fluff.'
