My Priorities for Dublin

Safe. Strong. Sustainable.

Dublin has been ranked the No. 1 Best Place to Live in California for 2026 to 2027 by U.S. News & World Report. This recognition reflects the strength of our community and the exceptional quality of life we have built together.

During my current two-year term as Mayor, we have strengthened public safety, opened three new parks, welcomed more than 100 new businesses, supported our schools and students, invested in roads and infrastructure, expanded community programs, and maintained strong city finances.

Over the next two-year term, I will build on this progress, protect what makes Dublin special, and prepare our city responsibly for the future.

Keeping Dublin Safe

Public safety will remain my highest priority.

I will continue supporting our police officers, firefighters, emergency personnel, school resource officers, and behavioral health resources. We will strengthen community partnerships, use modern technology, and support proactive policing to prevent crime and respond quickly to emergencies.

Every Dublin resident deserves to feel safe at home, at school, in our parks, and throughout our community. I will continue working to keep Dublin one of California’s safest and most welcoming cities.

Investing in Parks, Families, and Quality of Life

Our parks, recreation programs, cultural events, and community spaces help make Dublin a wonderful place to call home.

During the past two years, Dublin opened Wallis Ranch Community Park, Forest Park, and Phase 1 of Iron Horse Nature Park and Open Space. These new parks provide more places for recreation, exercise, nature, and community gatherings.

I will continue investing in well-maintained parks, youth and senior programs, arts and cultural activities, sports facilities, trails, and welcoming public spaces that bring our community together.

Supporting Businesses and Local Jobs

A thriving business community creates jobs, strengthens our tax base, and helps fund essential city services.

Dublin has welcomed more than 100 new businesses, including Grocery Outlet, H Mart, Dish N Dash, Bódrum Mezze & Cocktails, Inchin’s Bamboo Garden, BB.Q Chicken, and many other restaurants, retailers, healthcare providers, and entertainment destinations.

I will continue supporting local businesses, attracting high-quality employers, improving the permitting process, revitalizing commercial areas, and advancing the Fallon East Economic Development Zone. Dublin should remain a place where businesses and entrepreneurs can succeed.

Planning for Sustainable Growth

Dublin’s future requires thoughtful planning, reliable infrastructure, and balanced growth.

I will continue advancing transportation and roadway improvements, including the reconstruction of Village Parkway, improvements along Tassajara Road, annual street resurfacing, and safer connections for pedestrians and bicyclists.

As Dublin grows, our roads, public safety services, schools, parks, and infrastructure must keep pace. I will support responsible development that meets our community’s needs while protecting the quality of life that earned Dublin recognition as California’s best place to live.

Protecting Dublin’s Financial Strength

Strong finances allow Dublin to provide excellent services, invest in infrastructure, and prepare responsibly for the future.

While many cities are struggling to balance their budgets, Dublin ended the fiscal year 2025 with a General Fund surplus of approximately $35 million, reflecting strong and responsible financial management.

With my professional background in finance, engineering, and project management, I carefully examine how public funds are spent. I will continue maintaining healthy reserves, planning for long-term costs, investing in essential services, and ensuring that our financial decisions remain transparent and responsible.

Supporting Students and Schools

Excellent schools and safe learning environments are central to Dublin’s future.

Our community celebrated the opening of the new Emerald High School campus in 2024, and Shamrock Hills TK-8 School opened its doors to students in fall 2026. The City has supported school planning, crossing guards, Safe Routes to School, school resource officers, emergency preparedness, drug prevention education, and youth programs.

I will continue building a strong partnership between the City and Dublin Unified School District to support student safety, learning, leadership, and success.

Moving Dublin Forward Together

Dublin’s success belongs to all of us. It comes from engaged residents, dedicated city employees, excellent schools, thriving businesses, community organizations, and neighbors who care for one another.

It is a great honor to serve as your Mayor. Together, we can build on the progress of the past two years and keep Dublin safe, strong, sustainable, and an exceptional place to call home.
