Over time this site will be updated for Veronica's campaign for the November 2010 election for Santa Rosa City Council.
Find out more information about Climate Recovery efforts at the Issues page, and how you can help Veronica with our many local challenges on the Get Involved page.Veronica Jacobi believes that the way our area guides development in the next few years will be critical to our quality of life for generations. To continue a traditional subdivision approach will result in forced reliance on automobiles, excessive water use, and destruction of greenbelts. Veronica will continue bringing fresh ideas for improving and increasing affordable housing by clustering growth around schools, shopping, and public transportation hubs as well as provide safe and attractive pedestrian and bicycle routes.
Veronica Jacobi is committed to public safety, and will continue working hard to maintain effective law enforcement, fire and emergency services in all parts of the city, including creating more effective gang and violence prevention work with a greater emphasis on working with the community and empowering youth.
Veronica also supports improved public transportation, including alternative transportation linkages that work well with the SMART train, and more and safer pedestrian and bicycle routes throughout Santa Rosa. Increased evening and weekend buses should serve people with disabilities, people working second shifts, elders, students with late classes at the SRJC and SSU, youths, and those seeking social or other activities around town.Veronica Jacobi believes that one of the best ways to solve problems is for neighbors to sit down with neighbors. She works with community groups to address neighborhood problems including traffic, parking, and graffiti. Veronica works for solutions that take everyone's concerns into account. Veronica knows how to listen.
Veronica Jacobi believes that our water and waste water systems need serious attention to support our current residents & future development in an environmentally responsible way. Her skill and experience as a Professional Engineer (PE) is valuable as our local government works to meet the needs of current and future residents.
As a local elected, as an engineer, as a business owner, as a mother, and as a community volunteer, Veronica Jacobi PE has proven she gets things done to make Santa Rosa a better community.
Let's keep Veronica working for us on the Santa Rosa City Council!
