About Wayne

Deep Roots in Placer County
I am grateful to have been born and raised in Placer County. My early beginnings were on my family’s cattle ranch in Lincoln. There I learned the value of hard work and doing my best at whatever task I was given. After graduating from Lincoln High I went to Sierra College where I got my undergraduate degree in business while working part time for Bank of America. I finished my studies at Chico State University during which time I continued to be employed by Bank of America. After receiving my degree I began a 33 year career in banking, mostly in the Sacramento area. I had successive advancement in positions of leadership, finishing in the last eight years prior to retirement as Regional Manager for Government Banking in a four state region (CA, NV, AZ, & UT).

I have always believed in giving back to the communities and neighborhoods that I have lived in. For decades I have been serving on various boards, committees, and councils in Placer County with a dedicated view of protecting and enhancing the quality of life in the county. My personal commitment has been to take something good to better and from broken to workable. I do not accept face value for anything that comes to me for a decision. Digging deep into researching all aspects of an issue, to ferret out the best approach, is just part of the investment in time that I take to assure prudent outcomes.

My extensive and diverse background in development, transportation, agriculture, finance, fire and planning are critical to understanding the complexities that come before the Board of Supervisors. I am confident that the probing questions that I would ask would make for better results for our Placer County communities. I love this county, and in whatever capacity I serve, I am firmly committed to boldly stand for what is best to insure that it continues to be a wonderful place to live.

I believe we are best when we vigorously debate our way to a common good. We are stronger when we challenge each other to seek the highest ideals and to strive for the best outcomes. I would ask for your support and vote for my election to Supervisor for the 5th District to allow me to do this good work for the residents of Placer County.

Questions

I believe it is critical to recognize the very diverse community needs and focuses of District 5. To remain current, I intend to be very available and responsive to the constituents in Tahoe and the foothill regions in gathering their input on critical issues. Recognizing and addressing common problems such as traffic congestion and fire risks that many take different solutions. As Supervisor I would commit to being in Tahoe a minimum of one day a week to engage with the community and encourage and enable residents to be in direct contact with me wherever necessary.

Since Redevelopment Agencies were eliminated by the State, it has made efforts to rehabilitate the core areas of our communities much more difficult. I believe that Placer County has not handled the new approach to redevelopment well. They have been more receptive to larger, more challenging projects, rather than smaller more economically viable proposals. Those larger projects have historically failed to happen. Valuable time has been lost and significant taxpayer funds have been squandered. I would promote seeking out smaller infill developments that are a better fit for the Tahoe communities and also have a greater likelihood of success.

What I hear from Tahoe residents is that the area has become less livable. Just doing basic daily activities is challenging due to the frequent traffic congestion throughout the area. They also often mention that Placer County is working as a counterforce against the desire to maintain and enhance the unique Tahoe character; as evidenced by the proposed Tahoe Basin Area Plan amendments. Residents are reluctantly listened to, but not heard. As a result, the community’s trust with the officials of the county is broken. A commitment to value and regard the community’s concerns must be a top priority.

These are both top issues throughout District 5. Federal and State forest lands have for many decades been neglected and as a result the fuel loads have increased substantially. The State’s Insurance Commissioner and the legislature’s inactions have only compounded the insurance crisis. I would be a constant and loud voice to the leadership of these agencies and governing bodies demanding creditable action on these urgent issues. In the meantime, I would use all

Wells were starting to fail in Black Oak and Wayne worked with the Placer County Water Agency and the residents to bring in treated water. Because of Wayne’s diligence and commitment 42 homes got access to a reliable source of water and as an added bonus it also brought in much needed fire hydrants. In the more than 20 years that I have known Wayne, he has been actively engaged in working for the well-being of others and the betterment of the community.

I have known Wayne since his time on the local fire district board. He certainly knows the fire service issues well and has always put the safety of our communities as a top priority. Wayne is kind of leader that we need to tackle the challenges that we are facing in Placer County. He has good practical common sense, which is sorely lacking with most officeholders these days.
