Marc Levine + Leadership for San Rafael's Future

By Marc Levine

Candidate for Council Member; City of San Rafael

This information is provided by the candidate
I'm running for San Rafael City Council to preserve our local neighborhoods, help better prioritize city funding in this difficult budget environment, and lead us into a greener, healthier future with improved public safety facilities.

As your Councilmember, I will take action to: protect neighborhoods' unique characteristics; support local businesses and press for more high-quality merchants; implement technological efficiencies so we can continue funding graffiti abatement and public safety programs.

As Executive Director of ABDF.org, a humanitarian agency for Tsunami victims in Sri Lanka, I know how to set priorities and meet tight budgets. I have also been active locally with the Sun Valley Neighborhood Association and am a CERT graduate.

As a former technology developer, I see opportunities to utilize technology to achieve our goals. We should have better outreach with residents, more online forms and information gathering.

My wife, Wendy, and I are raising our family here. I'm fully invested in seeing that San Rafael is a great place to live and work for the next 20 years.
