As we look towards a brighter future for Gilroy, it’s crucial to have leaders who stand firm on the issues that matter most. I'm committed to bringing integrity, safety, and prosperity to our community. Here’s where I stand: Political Integrity: In times of dwindling trust, I pledge honest, transparent leadership that respects and responds to Gilroy voters. Public Safety: With a personal connection to law enforcement, I prioritize bolstering our police and fire departments, advocating for more personnel, competitive salaries, and improved infrastructure, including a new fire station. Local Control: I champion responsible growth, aiming to preserve Gilroy’s unique character against state mandates and ensuring our community decides its own destiny. Fiscal Responsibility: As a steward of taxpayer dollars, I will enforce policies that cut waste, increase transparency, and ensure funds directly benefit the community by fixing streets and enhancing public services. Downtown Revitalization: I support efforts to revitalize Downtown Gilroy, attracting businesses, jobs, and tourists to enrich our community's heart. With a platform built on integrity and a vision for a thriving, safe, and autonomous Gilroy, I am ready to lead. Join me in supporting a candidate who understands our challenges and sees our potential.

While volunteer first responders across the country share a common goal of serving their communities, each individual has different beliefs that impact their role. Tim Cramblit (Crescent Lake, OR) believes that volunteer responders, as public servants, have an obligation to learn, train, and pursue education & service opportunities whenever possible. Learn why he believes his, and how it’s impacted his first responder journey, at https://lnkd.in/gZ69YCwr.

Public safety is an increasing concern in Santa Fe, and it’s crucial that we approach solutions through an economic justice and community care lense. Check out my perspective on how we can build a safer Santa Fe:

What actually is a trustee? 👉 "Trustees are responsible for making sure a charity is doing what it was set up to do." (Charity Commission) Its a very important role, but not one that means you to have sat on loads of Boards before! Looking at the shared responsibility of a Trustee Board, its crucial to have different perspectives to enable better decision making. Some of the key values and skills that Trustees bring to help the Executive Team (in my view): curiosity, care, integrity, a willingness to offer a different view to the rest of the room, commitment, willingness to learn, teamwork, asking questions that enable better thinking. Key is commitment to the mission of the charity. So, I say all of that to say.....could you be a Spark Inside trustee? After an audit, we are looking for particular skills and experience.

This quote is why I love doing what I get to for our industry. "CVFD's decision to adopt IROL stems from several factors. Primarily, we're facing manpower challenges amidst the rapid growth within our district. Recognizing that our current report review rate falls below optimal levels, we acknowledge the urgent need for a solution. Additionally, hearing positive feedback from vendors in our region who have collaborated with IROL in other jurisdictions solidified our confidence in this platform."

Being a public sector executive requires sacrifice and commitment, not just from oneself but also one's family. That said, when I'm out and about I always like to give my kids an opportunity to see Daddy aka "Bandit" (Bluey reference for those with young kids) at work (when and where appropriate). #AllIn #TeamDaniels #Family1st #publicadministration #PublicPowerCommunity
