|I led the charge to prohibit encampments in all Tracy parks, ensuring safer public spaces. I also brought Tracy's first ambulance service to our community and am working diligently to establish a trauma-ready hospital, providing crucial medical care close to home. For too long, real estate developers have influenced elected officials through campaign contributions, resulting in preferential treatment that benefits developers but harms Tracy residents. This prioritization of special interest groups over our city's infrastructure, public safety, and amenities must stop. My "Community First" approach prioritizes Tracy residents. I will support existing businesses and attract new ones with fiscally conservative policies that streamline city processes. My top priorities include crime reduction, improved infrastructure, a thriving local economy, and family friendly amenities. I am honored to have the endorsement of former Tracy Mayor and recently reelected County Supervisor Robert Rickman. His support is a testament to my ability to lead Tracy as the next Mayor.
Join me in building a safer, stronger, and more vibrant Tracy.- Keeping the public safe is my primary responsibility, which is why I focused my first term on creating legislation that prohibited encampments in our public parks, protecting our children. I will continue to support policies that equip our law enforcement, and our fire fighters with the tools and resources they need in order to keep our community safe. This means ensuring that parks remain encampment free, and we impose more proactive enforcement to crack down on aggressive panhandling, nuisance loitering, reckless driving, and retail theft that is hurting our retailers. Tracy will be the safest city in San Joaquin County, because criminals will know that our PD is proactive, and have the full support of its Mayor to enforce the laws.
- I believe in putting the community-first. Tracy is the second largest city in San Joaquin County, paying some of the highest taxes, however, we have the worst infrastructure, the least amenities and critical resources. It's time to put an end to practices that prioritize special interest over our community's interest. Under my leadership, developers will build infrastructure, schools and amenities first or concurrently with all new development. A growing city of our size should have pristinely maintained streets, roads, and interchanges; our parks should be well-kept and offer all-ability access and activities; Tracy should have multiple transportation options, including Valley Link, and a strong rideshare program.
- As Mayor, I will continue to work diligently to bring community-desired businesses, amenities, and resources that a growing city deserves. I fought to put Legacy Fields back on the priority list and ensured that the fields, and parking lots completed. I will make sure that the long overdue aquatic center is a top priority; I will streamline processes at City Hall, and fight for creative incentives, that keep taxes low to help attract new businesses. I will personally be proactive in pursuit of specialty grocers, family entertainment, a police substation in South Tracy, a trauma-ready hospital; help reimagine West Valley Mall to attract high-end retail shopping so that we can spend our hard-earned money locally instead of over the hill.
by Robert Fulghum. Teaching is a noble, under appreciated profession, and I believe that the lessons I learned in my youth are the lessons that are most relevant to the way I lead in my personal life, and public service. Among many valuable lessons, as young children, we are taught to "do unto others as you would have them do to you". We are taught to be patient, be kind, be honest, fair, respectful, thoughtful, to share, be tolerant, and to wait our turns-I wouldn't be the person I am today had I not learned these basic lessons early in life-a credit to the early childhood educators in my life.
