North County 'has much potential,' said jim_desmond, who mentioned the region's importance in agriculture, education, industry, medicine, military, recreation, tourism and tribal communities. 'We get to live where people want to vacation.'
Reducing homelessness means more housing, and that's not easy to come by, Desmond said. On the plus side, he added, North County gained more than 500 units over the past three years."We've got to build," Desmond said."If we start losing our jobs, we're in a world of hurt."
"We're trying to help people," along with getting them off the street by working with different nonprofits, including Interfaith Community Services, North County Health Project, Casa de Amparo, he said. While there are a few bad apples among the ranks, the profession in general doesn't deserve its bad rap, the supervisor said, praising the Sheriff's Department, Probation Department and firefighters for keeping the public safe.
Desmond said one of the best things about his job is meeting people, including tribal communities,"who are very good neighbors" and an important part of the county's economy. Desmond, a critic of certain state or federal pandemic mandates, said that"everybody went above and beyond to deal with it, even though everyone didn't have the right answers."
