Until now, Roger Wykle had postponed his decision to seek a second term on the Moraga Town Council. But that changed when he recently announced his bid for re-election. He said he decided that it was important to have some continuity on the council as two members, Mike Metcalf and Phil Arth, have announced they would not run again.
Wykle said he hesitated because the volunteer commitment as a council member is more time consuming than people realize, especially during the year he was the mayor. But he said that he wanted to see some work completed, such as the amendment of the town's hillside and ridgeline regulations.
Wykle is also interested in possibly taking another look at the traffic impact of all the proposed developments in town. He would also like to see the Moraga Center specific plan zoning updated, and a funding solution found for the town's storm drain backlog.
Wykle added that his wife and teen children support his decision and appreciate the work he does for the town.
