PRIORITIES
- Creating real middle-class housing
I will promote policies and champion projects that create real middle-class housing. - Local business growth – Our mall is failing, small businesses are struggling, we have the highest unemployment in Ventura County, we have a budget deficit crisis, and our city is deeply divided along political and racial lines.
- Community Service programs – I’ll advocate for much-needed social service programs that will not only benefit the community by creating jobs, but will also help with crime prevention.

LET’S USE OUR HUMANITY TO MAKE SANTA CLARITA THRIVE.
PRIORITIES
- Housing – We need housing of all income levels in West Hollywood and a thoughtful analysis of our zoned capacity as a city to equitably distribute new housing across the city.
- Transportation – We have a muddled and inefficient set of tools that need to be elevated into a comprehensive, dynamic and thoughtful network of resources to mobilize our community. This includes a completed network of safe bike lanes, visible parking resources, and transportation services for the senior and disabled community.
- Social Services -Our rental assistance program is the most significant tool we have to keep people from becoming unhoused. Our pilot guaranteed income program needs long term funding and the behavioral crisis response unit should be fully funded to 24//7 wrap around support.

- Art, Culture, and Education – There is an incredible untapped potential in our beautiful city to do more art, cultural, and educational programs, and benefit our community and bring new dollars into our city.

PRIORITIES
- HOUSING AFFORDABILITY & RENTER’S RIGHTS – I am laser-focused on the growing crisis of housing and housing affordability. I will work in support of efforts to expand and preserve rent stabilization, incentivize or mandate additional affordable, high density mixed use development, and reduce red tape preventing additional alternative housing such as ADUs, split lots, conversions.
- PUBLIC SAFETY – Creating a safe WeHo means recognizing the concerns and working to minimize the ill effects of bias in our law enforcement.
- HOMELESSNESS – We must explore proven and fresh ideas to attack this problem head on. This starts with looking at the causes of homelessness and addressing this epidemic from that perspective, i.e. 4 categories: (1) financial distress/intimate partner violence/familial desertion, (2) mental illness, (3) substance abuse, and (4) insufficient options to meet the needs of the unhoused. Eliminating homelessness helps us all.
