Enoch Christoffersen, long-time Turlock mayor and councilman, leads a city praised for pay-as-you-go growth and low debt. He touts 1960s- era buildings funded in advance, a 2 million bond for sewage treatment, and tax cuts from 2.00 to 1.52 per 100 assessed valuation. He also runs a large poultry operation and says city finances are managed with personal prudence.
