    Vaughn's Candidate Statement

    Vaughn R. Higginbotham

    For the past five years, I have owned and operated a small electronic repair business in Sebastopol. As an entrepreneur, I feel that adding more local businesses will benefit our city and create revenue by providing an alternative to driving to Santa Rosa for the 40,000 West Sonoma County residents.

    I am running for Sebastopol City Council in order to find innovative ways to increase city revenue, attract locally owned businesses, ease traffic and parking issues, and boost town pride.

    As a volunteer firefighter, my service to others comes before everything else. Through this experience, I have learned how to advance policies that benefit and heighten our sense of community.

    As a graduate of our local schools, I will continue advancing Sebastopol’s education system to encourage younger families to become a part of our community.

    For six generations my family has lived in Sebastopol. What we cherish the most about living here is our sense and our small town charm.

    If elected, I will listen attentively, engage in careful deliberation, and support policy that retains Sebastopol’s character.

    Thanks for considering my candidacy. Sebastopol and all of her citizens are my top priority. It is my honor to serve you.

    The store is a residential address.
    Open 5 years... no reviews?
    Is this a real business, or just for show?

    Some further homework done....

    The Wayback Machine shows no past websites at vaughnselectronicsrepair.com, and it being a 302 failed web address back at two dates in 2017 and in August of 2018.

    Vaughn was busy today

    Deputy crashed into house during vehicle pursuit.
    Shortly after 5am this morning, a deputy crashed into a Bodega Bay house during a pursuit.

    At approximately 4:00 a.m. this morning, a deputy was searching the Bodega Bay area for suspects in recent thefts. He found a vehicle he believed was involved with the thefts. As he drove closer to the vehicle, the driver took off and the deputy followed in pursuit. The suspect exceeded speeds of 90-100 miles per hour. While in pursuit, the deputy crashed into a house in the 600 block of Highway 1 in Bodega Bay. He was able to get out of the car, and he and another deputy helped the occupants safely get out of the house. Shortly after, the patrol car caught fire and the house was engulfed in flames.

    The people in the house were not hurt. The injured deputy was transported to a local hospital and expected to fully recover. CHP is investigating the cause of the crash.

    This is an initial press release. More details about the incident, including the deputy's name, will be released later.

    What's the connection between this terrible story and Vaughn? Did the Fire department that Vaughn volunteer's for (Sebastopol?) respond to the fire???

    Re: Vaughn's Candidate Statement

    Vaughn actually volunteers for Bodega Fire. Pic #1 he supplied to me when I asked if he responded out there. It shows the house badly burned up. Pic #2 was the pic on Nixle from when it first happened, house just starting to burn.

    I asked him if he went out there, he said yes and gave me that second pic, the one after the fire was out. And I said it looks like a total loss.

    It doesn't look like the damage to the patrol vehicle will buff out...

    I think that's what's called a Home Business; Do you have a problem with that?

    I can vouch that Vaughn's Electronic Repair helped me replace the hard drive of my iMac. Fast and efficient service. He's a joy to work with. He even videotaped the entire process.

    He will make a great city councilman--honest, hardworking, and has an uncanny ability to 'think outside the box.'

    Who gets to pick up the tab for this fiasco?

    And why did the deputy engage in a dangerous high-speed car chase instead of calling for help from other law enforcement agencies and a helicopter? More and more cop-shops are banning high-speed car chases because of the danger to bystanders and collateral damage like this one. Maybe the Sonoma County Sheriff Department needs to do the same.
