I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for Richa Awasthi, Phoebe Venkat and Patrick Sullivan in their candidacy for Foster City City Council. In a time when our city faces significant challenges — ranging from economic concerns to the need for thoughtful growth and development — all three bring the experience and strategic mindset that are essential for leading us forward.
All three have a proven track record of leadership, and their deep understanding of the issues that matter most to our community sets them apart. They have consistently demonstrated their ability to navigate complex problems and develop practical and forward-thinking solutions. Whether it’s addressing housing affordability, improving public safety, or ensuring our infrastructure meets the needs of a growing population, I am confident that these three are the right people to tackle these challenges head-on.
Their commitment to transparent governance and active community engagement is exactly what we need at this critical juncture. With their stewardship on the City Council, we will see meaningful progress that benefits all of us.
For these reasons, I strongly endorse Patrick Sullivan, Richa Awasthi and Phoebe Venkat, for the City Council and encourage my fellow residents to vote for them in the upcoming election.
