Candidate Statements
Eileen Burke
- San Anselmo Town Council Member
- Infrastructure: “I will continue to focus on the basics all residents care about: roads, parks, fire and flood preparedness, and the environment. And I’ll build on the things that make our town special — recreational facilities and community events.”
- Recreation: “Recreation will continue to be a priority.”
- Community Events: “I’ll continue to support Live on the Avenue, our amazing summer concert series that brings our community together, holiday events, and all types of recreational opportunities for all ages.”
Ford Greene
- No designation
- Transparency: “Respecting voters’ intelligence, I protected public feedback, efficiently running meetings as mayor evenhandedly, openly, with warmth and humor.”
- Taxes: “Consistently independent, I uphold what is right; was the only council member who voted to protect Memorial Park from becoming an ineffective flood control basin and against an unnecessary $9 million park tax.”
- Collaboration: “I want to go where the committed, involved citizens of San Anselmo want our town to go. I want to move per our citizens’ desires, not per an elected official’s agenda.”
Guy Meyer
- Writer/talkshow host
- Environment: “I am an ecology-minded citizen who led the community effort that removed the toxic herbicide ‘Roundup’ from use in our town’s parks and medians in 1993.”
- Democracy: “Small-town democracy needs defending and participation. Decisions affecting families, business people and our quality of life are being made by our non-elected public servants and this needs to be checked.”
- Transparency: “An open door at Town Hall should be the standard that all citizens take pride in.”
Chantel Walker
- Small business owner
- Problem Solving: “I have a keen ability to listen and facilitate conversations that help problem-solve and guide action in challenging situations.”
- Collaboration: “I have a track record of fostering collaboration to support community conversations across multiple perspectives on topics central to San Anselmo’s success.”
- Budget: “I’ll contribute to our continued economic vibrance, fiscal stability, fire and flood protection, balanced housing policies, and excellent community services.”

Yoav Schlesinger
- Technology ethicist
- Priorities: “Key issues including: a safe and thriving setting for families; supporting local, small businesses; wildfire, flood and disaster preparedness; traffic abatement, along with pedestrian and bicycle safety; maintaining open space and investing in our parks; and forging a community where everyone feels heard and respected.”
- Impact: “I believe that people and business can make the world a better place.”
- Collaboration: “I look forward to partnering with you to achieve these goals and make our town an even better place to live, work, and grow.”
