I oppose the AVAIO Perseus Data Center project, including all future phases, proposed at the former Delta View Golf Course site.
Empowerment begins with you. To better represent our city, I believe in an all-inclusive community where every opinion, thought, and idea must be heard and considered. To truly represent your community, innovation can come from everyone and anyone, especially YOU!
I will have our government department leaders and supervisors help institute outstanding customer service and acquire training and technical skills and tools to be able to serve our community more efficiently and become more responsive in the future. Will also encourage volunteers and part-time workers to join county government and support our public servants.

Provide funding to prosecute more crime and vandalism to stop many repeating offenders so they can finally be held accountable. Encourage more neighborhood watch type programs working with police and the public by using video cameras both public and private to have recordings to identify and locate perpetrators and make it easier to prosecute them. All this and more will help deter and decrease crime and vandalism. I also support changing recent laws that have left perpetrators of smaller acts of theft and vandalism without any consequences. With this, I hope to combat lawlessness and prove that any misdemeanor is worth being addressed and dealt with properly.
Many times, those with power and influence are the recipients of many of the resources and when available to them, they will strive to get more for their own sake and benefit.

Many times, those with power and influence are the recipients of many of the resources and when available to them, they will strive to get more for their own sake and benefit. Many of the most vulnerable residents lack this power and influence to benefit from many of the resources in our city. Knowing this, as an elected leader I will always fight for all members of our community, especially paying attention to our most vulnerable residents. I plan to invite and encourage more participation from all members of our community by doing more outreach and being a source of relatability and reliance.
I will work to make City of Pittsburg budgets, revenues, expenditures, and proposed investments easier for residents to access and understand. Greater financial transparency will help our community participate in decisions about how public resources are allocated. I am sure there are inactive residents that, given an opportunity to be involved, would help voice their wants and ideas to better spend our tax dollars and help the government be more impactful towards our population and long-term goals in the community.

Meet with the Housing Developers that have developed housing in the last 8 years and ask them what Government can do, whether it be changing regulations and requirements to have more affordable housing. If a solution cannot be found with our private sector or private-public partnerships, then our government will have to take a much more aggressive and active role in finding the solution by looking at what has been done in other parts of the county, state, country, and other countries. By comparing other solutions, we will work to implement the best options one step at a time and/or advance through multiple actions at once. Vote Gonzalez for Pittsburg City Council Race.

I appreciate the work of Pittsburg's law enforcement officers who serve and protect our community every day. I support continuing to build strong relationships and trust between our police officers and the residents they serve. We can strengthen public safety by providing officers with quality training, modern equipment and technology, effective body cameras, and the resources they need to do their jobs safely and professionally. I also believe accountability and transparency are essential to maintaining the public's trust. When misconduct occurs, it should be addressed fairly, thoroughly, and according to the law. By supporting both our officers and strong standards of accountability, we can continue building a safer Pittsburg for everyone.
Homelessness is a complex challenge with many contributing factors, including rising housing costs, insufficient affordable housing, unemployment, poverty, family instability, domestic violence, physical and mental health conditions, substance use disorders, and limited access to supportive services.

Homelessness is a complex challenge with many contributing factors, including rising housing costs, insufficient affordable housing, unemployment, poverty, family instability, domestic violence, physical and mental health conditions, substance use disorders, and limited access to supportive services.
Every person experiencing homelessness has a unique history, circumstances, and needs. Some individuals require temporary financial assistance or affordable housing, while others may need ongoing medical care, mental health treatment, substance use recovery services, employment assistance, or other forms of support.
I support greater coordination between the City of Pittsburg, Contra Costa County, nonprofit organizations, housing providers, and community volunteers to address these challenges comprehensively.
We should strengthen outreach efforts, improve access to emergency shelter and transitional and permanent housing, and coordinate services while respecting individual privacy and dignity.
By understanding the different circumstances of families, veterans, young adults, seniors, and individuals experiencing chronic homelessness, we can develop more effective and appropriate responses.
Our goal should be to help people obtain safe, stable housing, access the services they need, and work toward greater independence and long-term stability.
Addressing homelessness requires compassion, accountability, cooperation, and practical solutions that benefit both individuals experiencing homelessness and the broader community.
