Candidate for
Council Member; City of San Jose; Council District 4

My Vision

Right now, we need real leadership in District 4 that involves the stakeholders of its residents and business owners. My vision is to bring people together from all facets of the community and hear feedback and discuss issues that directly affect our district and the City of San Jose. In District 4 specifically, these are the issues I would like to address as Council Member:

• Balanced budget without the elimination of public service and safety programs
• Pension reform for current and future city employees
• Planned growth and development and their impact on our communities
• District 4 Identity - How will District 4 define itself for the future?

I will strive to ensure that public safety programs (police, fire, community centers, library, anti-gang and graffiti) will be reinstated as priorities with the City of San Jose.

My goal to is to double the number of active neighborhood organizations in District 4; presently there are less than 10. By creating more neighborhood leadership organizations, we can make closer local connections where your questions, concerns and suggestions can all be heard and together we will make District 4 a great place to live, work, shop, play and be proud of.

If I am entrusted with the opportunity to serve as your next Council Member, you will have elected the right leader who will make a truly positive impact for the residents and businesses of District 4.

I appreciate your support in my bid to become your next District 4 City Council Member.
