Walnut Creek is an incredible community, but we are at a turning point. Many residents feel we are on the wrong track as housing costs rise, traffic and safety worsen, and growth threatens the character that makes this city special. These challenges affect our daily quality of life and demand thoughtful, local leadership.

Why This Moment Matters

• Cost of living pressures are growing.
  Housing costs are pushing families and young people out of Walnut Creek.

• Traffic and safety are daily concerns.
  Congestion, cut-through traffic, and street safety affect neighborhoods across the city.

• Growth is outpacing planning.
  Residents worry that decisions are being made without enough balance or community input.

• The next four years are critical.
  City Council decisions will shape how Walnut Creek grows, how safe our neighborhoods are, and how we invest in shared community spaces.
