Indian Wells is a special city that needs Toper Taylor, a doctor of public policy, successful businessperson, and longtime Indian Wells Golf Committee member. Over the next four years, the City Council of Indian Wells must address significant investments requiring tens of millions of dollars from both the public and private sectors. Investments include the redesign of the golf course, the launch of a new celebrity chef restaurant, the development of affordable housing to meet state requirements, the development of a luxury hotel complex, and the maintenance of our low-income retirement homes, growing energy needs, and more.
As one of the fastest growing regions in the state of California, we must anticipate and prepare for the increased use of our infrastructure including our roads, sidewalks, police, fire, energy, water, and parking. The city of Indian Wells needs leadership who is educated, experienced in complex negotiations, setting long-term strategy, reviewing complex budgets and forecasts, and holding our city accountable. As a long-time executive in family entertainment who built businesses with more than two thousand employees located over four continents, managed global brands, and worked with banks to provide lines of credit that are in the $100 million range, the city of Indian Wells can rest assured when Toper Taylor joins their city council.
Dr. Taylor recently received his doctorate in public policy from the University of Southern California. He is a student of local government best practices, communication, and transparency. He also sits on the Golf Committee for the City of Indian Wells where he has been very active in the discussions around investment in the city's golf courses, Vue restaurant, and has established a working relationship with management of the three primary hotels: the Hyatt, the Renaissance, and Tommy Bahamas.
Toper Taylor is endorsed by every member of the Indian Wells City Council and former city council members.
