Housing

In order to address our homelessness crisis, we must build more affordable housing. I am proud to have lead several award-winning affordable housing communities in the City of Dublin and I will continue that record of success as Supervisor. I believe that everyone deserves to have a roof over their head, especially if they are battling mental health issues or addiction. It is unconscionable that this crisis continues to grow and we allow individuals with troubling afflictions to languish in encampments without treatment. I will work to create policies that provide necessary treatment, job skills training, and suitable housing options for our homeless community. Learn more

I support adding roads and lanes when needed, and making necessary improvements to major roads to reduce gridlock. As Mayor of Dublin, I supported widening Dougherty Road, Dublin Blvd., and Tassajara Road, as well as improvements to San Ramon Valley Blvd to make those corridors more efficient. However, traffic solutions need to go beyond building expensive new roads. We must do a better job balancing jobs and housing, including not allowing more office space in areas that do not have enough housing. I am proud that the Tri Valley region has the best jobs to housing balance in the Bay Area. I want to bring that success to the rest of Alameda County. Learn more

I will spearhead solutions to increase affordable housing options, including subsidized housing and vouchers, requirements on future development to offer affordable housing programs, density bonuses, and higher sales tax programs to fund affordable housing. Learn more

Homelessness is a statewide issue that has only worsened in recent years. In the Bay Area, the high cost of living coupled with the lack of affordable housing has undoubtedly added to this crisis. As Supervisor, I will provide solutions that result in real, significant change for our most vulnerable residents, including increased affordable housing, mental health services, and addiction rehabilitation.

Infrastructure / Transportation

I believe that developers should contribute to the community as a whole if they wish to build in our County. As Supervisor, I will ensure that developers pay the necessary taxes and fees to fund our local schools, parks, transportation, and other community needs. Paying their fair share will help balance a growing population with the infrastructure needed to support our community. Additionally, I pledge to never approve a development unless I believe it is the best solution for Alameda County residents. Learn more

Investing in more public transportation will also help reduce traffic in Alameda County. That is why I support the Valley Link Project, a train that will provide seamless connections with BART and the Altamont Corridor Express (ACE). Providing cost-efficient transportation alternatives to vehicles will help commuters reach their jobs while reducing gridlock throughout the Bay Area. Learn more
