Fiscal Responsibility

- Our tax base is growing with expanding retail at Stoneridge Mall served by our new BART station
- Our reserves are healthy with over $110 million in long term investments
Public Safety
- Our fully staffed Police Department contributes to one of the lowest crime rates in the Bay Area
- The Fire Department is also fully staffed and we opened a new award-winning fire station
