About George
My wife and I chose Belle Haven to raise a family, and as our family grew, I became more involved in our community in 2011 by serving as board member on the Belle Haven Community Foundation, an organization that was designed to give Belle Haven a new sense of unity and a more esteemed voice in the greater City of Menlo Park. These are the values that I hold dear, and what ultimately lead me to run for the Menlo Park City Council District 1.
Community Service
As a current member of the Menlo Park Sister City Committee, I support the cultural diversity of our community, and as a permanent board member of the Asian Pacific American Political Association (APAPA), I work tirelessly to ensure that new immigrants are registered to vote and can fully participate in the American democratic process.
Recently, I served on the San Bruno Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Committee, and was twice elected committee chair. While on the committee, I worked to implement the Walking School Bus (Safe Routes to School) program, to improve pedestrian accessibility for people with disabilities, and to promote safety for cyclists.
Why I’m Running
I am running for the Menlo Park District 1 City Council because I am invested in our community. I share the desire of Belle Haven residents to have our voice heard. I understand residents fundamental need to create vibrancy and accessibility in our neighborhood that is equal to the broader area of Menlo Park. I believe in the importance of community control over decisions that impact our neighborhoods.
Together we can address the growing amount of traffic in our neighborhood by investing in our transportation infrastructure. It is important to encourage and support small business, and continue to keep our residents safe. As a parent, I will promote partnerships with our local schools when given the opportunity.
Belle Haven is rapidly changing, and now more than ever our community requires a knowledgeable and experienced leader that represents all of our community.
