Government Reform I’ll work to restore trust between City Hall and the people it serves by strengthening ethics policies and creating more ways for residents to engage and be heard. Arts / Culture As mayor, I’ll continue ensuring these landmarks serve the public good, with inclusive planning and real input from the people who call this city home. Infrastructure / Transportation I’ll prioritize thoughtful, sustainable planning that addresses housing affordability, protects our environment, and builds a city where everyone, from longtime residents to young families, can live and thrive. Smart growth isn't about more. It’s about better. Economy We must continue to cut red tape, expand access to resources, and ensure small business owners have a seat at the table when decisions are made. Criminal Justice / Public Safety As your mayor, I’ll be tough on crime and laser-focused on making sure our police have the tools and training they need to keep us safe, while also ensuring accountability and community trust. Infrastructure / Transportation As mayor, I’ll champion resilient, sustainable solutions that protect homes, roads, and public spaces from rising seas and stronger storms.
