I have spoken to dozens of you — elected officials, community leaders, service providers, small business owners, and neighbors across San Carlos and the county over the past few months. I find that we have many shared experiences and concerns. With your vote on November 6th as the next San Carlos City Council Member, I will work hard to:

• Preserve our civic personality by carefully assessing proposed growth opportunities
• Encourage community dialog and initiate collaborative public and private partnerships
• Increase workforce housing stocks and improve access to public transportation
• Help our schools stay strong, clean and well-staffed
• Drive government efficiency and accountability by encouraging results-based budgeting
• Maintain our neighborhood infrastructure. While sewers, power and garbage aren’t particularly warm and fuzzy, they are the backbone of a well-run community!
• Protect and enhance our parks and open spaces
• Work with our police, fire and other first-responders to ensure public safety
• Increase child care capacity and promote early childhood development
• Address traffic and congestion issues with local and regional groups
