Slogan: “Honor We Stand”

Statement: My goals for the City of Alameda:
• Ensure children are safe in schools. Parents should be able to send their kids to school and know beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are safe at all times. With that said, I think it is important that children know that the police are on their side and are here to help.
• Create a community-wide neighborhood watch in partnership with APD.
• Reduce homelessness by working with people from the inside out. Get connected with individuals’ own life story and find out what led them to become homeless. We find the source of the problem, then we get them connected with housing resources.
• Find an affordable housing resolution determined to get to the bottom of where we stand, have the facts available and a clear vision for people.
• Raise teacher pay when we get connected to all of our resources.
• Create two dog parks and cultivate community.
• Increase tourism, which will bring millions of dollars into our city and establish our city’s identity on the world stage.
• Promote bicycle safety procedures including making sure people always have the proper equipment.
• Educate the community on earthquake preparedness procedures.
