Board of Supervisors Chair Nathan Fletcher addressed the county Tuesday, touting recent achievements and unveiling new initiatives.
SAN DIEGO – Board of Supervisors Chair Nathan Fletcher Tuesday evening used the annual State of the County address to tout recent achievements and unveil new initiatives.
“I’m not going to let anyone take us backward,” he added. “I choose progress. I fight forward. And I hope you will join me because I know we can do it.” Now in his second yearlong term as board chair, Fletcher announced numerous initiatives and programs — some of them co-sponsored with other supervisors — including:
— a proposed safety ordinance to protect people working inside warehouses against unsafe and unfair practices;— hiring more veterans in county government; Fletcher also highlighted the importance of foster parents, including those willing to take in LGBTQ youth, siblings and children 8 years and up. “Despite what you might have heard, we never stopped funding public safety in San Diego County,” Fletcher told the audience.
A Marine who served in the Iraq War, Fletcher said that every day, he thinks about the friends he lost in that conflict.
