Candidate for
Council Member; Town of Los Gatos

I believe that those in public service should follow the highest ethical standards, and be guided by the principles of transparency, fairness and consistency.

The following Preamble to our Code of Conduct Policy encapsulates that belief:

"Public trust and mutual respect are essential for effective political leadership and efficient governance. Democratic governance requires that decision makers be fair, independent, impartial and accountable. Based on these values, the Los Gatos Town Council has adopted a Code of Conduct Policy that establishes guiding principles for appropriate conduct and behavior, and sets forth the expectations of Councilmembers. The provisions of this policy reflect a commitment by Councilmembers to the people they serve and to each other, and more importantly, a desire to seek what is good for the community."
