A new generation of leadership
In District 8, families work hard to put food on the table, and we pay what every other district pays. But in communities north of Interstate 8, that money maintains good streets and clean parks, and funds the enhancement of business corridors. Down here, we get told to wait our turn.
City Hall isn't out of money. It's out of ideas.
$107 million secured for
Parks
Fire safety
Road repair
Housing
In their words
What the community has to say (and Gerardo's mom)
From farmworker, to your fighter
Where he stands
What City Hall gets wrong, and what Gerardo will do about it.
The city will help you rent. It won't help you own.
There's a program that covers your down payment. But there's no dedicated funding source.
Read the plan →The city spent half a million on a van to learn what streets need fixing, instead of listening to the residents.
Resident phone calls requesting resurfacing are not logged.
Read the plan →The city is measuring the wrong thing and wasting your tax dollars.
It counts how many people it puts inside at night. Nobody counts how many get off the streets for good.
Read the plan →Ten months. That's how long the city takes to fix a streetlight.
A basic city obligation, left behind.
