    Endorsement: Tanner Douthit for Tustin City Council
    • October 28, 2024

    Voters in Tustin’s District 1 have their pick of two candidates to represent them on the City Council.

    Candidate Lee Fink recently made headlines after a disturbing video was released showing Fink swearing at and shoving a man during a home tour without provocation. We believe his conduct is disqualifying. Anyone willing to physically bully someone should not be trusted with political power.

    By contrast, Tanner Douthit, a local businessman who serves as a member of the planning commission, is a thoughtful and serious candidate. His priorities are straightforward: support public safety, streamline the development process and cleaning up city streets and parks.

    “I’d like to streamline our processes to make it fast, easy and affordable for new businesses to come to Tustin,” he explains. “I want to plant a flag that tells the world, Tustin is open for business by cutting business fees and promoting our Tustin businesses for Southern California and the world to see.”

    With his planning commission experience in his back pocket, he is well-suited to help promote housing construction. “Our city does not have enough housing,” he argues. “During my tenure on the planning commission, we have been strategic in adding to our housing inventory while maintaining the character of what makes Tustin great.”

    He opposes rent control, has vowed not to raise sales taxes in the city and he will be reliable voice for fiscal responsibility on the council.

    It’s an easy decision: Elect Tanner Douthit to the Tustin City Council.
