The grand opening of Christmas in the Park is just around the corner, so my team and I spent the afternoon decorating our tree with something near and dear to my heart: more housing! 🎄🏘️

When we think about a safer and more vibrant downtown, we're not thinking about smoke shops making unpermitted cannabis sales and stocking industrial sized canisters of nitrous oxide. This is an important first step towards a safer and healthier San José.
San José Is Cracking Down on Smoke Shops and Sales of Nitrous Oxide ‘Whip-Its’ | KQED
The City Council passed twin ordinances to put a moratorium on new tobacco retail licenses and ban the sale of nitrous oxide at smoke shops.

It was all treats and no tricks as I joined a queen, a witch, and Ted Lasso — I mean, City Manager Jennifer Maguire, City Librarian Jill Bourne, and Assistant City Manager Lee Wilcox — in handing out candy and books to trick or treaters at the MLK Library. 📚 👻 🎃 (1/2)

Ribbon cuttings are one of the best parts of my job, because we get to celebrate folks investing in our city and show everyone that Downtown San José is the place to be. That’s why I was excited to join in welcoming Poppy & Claro to our downtown!

I had the pleasure of taking part in Smith Carlos Day at San Jose State University. Tommie Smith and John Carlos stand as examples to all of us (Spartans or not!) who have a platform. Whether that platform is an Olympic podium or the dais at City Hall, we must use it to forward the cause of justice.

Today we kicked off the Larry Itliong Way project! And what better time to do it than Filipino American History Month? Larry Itliong’s story remains largely forgotten, absent from textbooks and unacknowledged in the places where history is made visible. It’s time to change that.

It’s hockey night in San José! Last night we didn’t just celebrate opening night for the Sharks — we also unveiled the newly renamed Sharks Way. While the Golden Knights were able to steal a win in overtime, we’ll get them next time! 🦈 🏒
