    Rowe and Schumann


    City Council Candidates

    Council hopefuls Frances Rowe and David Schumann want to shake up city government


    The gadflies are abuzz at City Hall, as two candidates for City Council--Frances Rowe and David Schumann--seek to pester the status quo in this November's election. Schumann--a retired palm oil trader and newcomer to city politics--is running against incumbent council member Jack Walker--and the grain of the current council. The core of his campaign is based on two issues: his overarching desire to downsize government, and his call for a public vote on the future of Moffett Field. The other race is between Frances Rowe, whom councilmembers removed from her mayoral post in 1995 (despite her cries of conspiracy), and Tim Risch, an engineer and a familiar face around City Hall from serving on several boards and commissions. Both Rowe and Schumann frame their races on their desires to dramatically change the tack at City Hall.   More
