Frank Sandoval
Candidate for City Council Member, Menifee, District 4
Frank Sandoval's family has lived in Menifee since 1990; he now lives in the Heritage Lake neighborhood with his wife and young son. He owns a technology consulting firm and previously owned a staffing and recruiting company in San Diego, having started his first business from his kitchen table.
Positions in brief
Sandoval wants to support small businesses and entrepreneurs with more business-park and light-industrial space rather than additional large warehouses, preserve Menifee's small-town character, and concentrate new growth around existing infrastructure.
Sandoval says he knows firsthand what it takes for entrepreneurs to get started and wants to create more business-park and light-industrial space for local small businesses rather than more warehouse development, which he believes Menifee already has enough of. He aims to preserve what he calls the city's semi-rural, small-town feel through a healthy mix of locally-owned and national businesses. He supports concentrating future housing and commercial development around existing infrastructure to attract amenities like grocery stores and restaurants while limiting strain on city services. He opposed the roughly 830,000-square-foot Heritage Valley Business Center warehouse project, citing the General Plan changes it would require and its environmental impacts, including greenhouse-gas emissions and added truck traffic. He supports the Flock automated license-plate reader program on the condition that police maintain transparency and strict adherence to policy.
