ON THE ISSUES
* AIRPORTS
“I’m against El Toro. I’m against any expansion of John Wayne. My
position is that we don’t need a 30-million passenger airport anywhere in
Orange County.” Campbell argues that the solution is to look inland at
sites in Ontario or at March Air Force Base.
* THE ENVIRONMENT
“I absolutely will pursue state money to [tackle urban runoff],
because this is not a problem that affects just a single city.” He says
that filtration systems in flood channels may provide an effective method
of eliminating some runoff-based contamination.
* CALIFORNIA TAXES
He says extensive reforms of state taxation are needed. “Why have a
whole separate code for California? We have a huge bureaucracy to
administer this separate tax code. Why?”
* TEACHER TENURE
“I think the teacher tenure system is a poor one. It protects teachers
who perhaps should be in another line of work.”
