I
am proud that the results of the last four years show I delivered on my
commitments:
- I am very
pleased to report that our county supervisors have agreed that this
funding should revert to our city in the future (this would be a 10%
increase in our general fund). We have had unanimous support in the
state senate and assembly and the governor signed the bill three weeks
ago.
- By forming
the first school ad hoc committee in Saratoga’s history and partnering
with our schools, we have improved traffic flow at most Saratoga schools
and access to school fields for sports.
- I have
led the revitalization of the Village by attracting new businesses to
the Village and investing in the storefronts, sidewalks, and Blaney
Plaza.
- I have
driven safety improvements in the El Quito area, Oak Street, the library,
and Herriman crossing.
- I improved
neighborhood relationships with Montalva and the Farmer’s Market
with creative solutions to traffic and access issues.
- I convinced
the council to hire the grant writer that got the city a $160k grant
for safe routes for kids, and I convinced Monte Sereno city council
to spend $80k of their park money with Saratoga.
- Our Council
has enabled construction and improvement projects at the Library, Fire
Station, Saratoga-Sunnyvale Gateway, Blaney Plaza, Azule Park, and Congress
Springs Park.
- Money Magazine
named Saratoga the 26th most liveable small city in America.
- I worked
on the De Anza and Saratoga-to-the-Sea trails, and we completed the
first ordinance to protect trees in our city.
- I am one
of the founders of the Saratoga Monte Sereno Community Foundation.
