Maria Bagley’s priorities are shaped by her experience as a Concord resident, mother, grandmother, small business owner, public finance professional, and community volunteer.
Maria will champion:
Fiscal Responsibility and Transparent City Government
Use Maria’s public finance experience to protect taxpayer dollars, make responsible budget decisions, and ensure residents understand how and why City Hall acts.
Housing Concord Families Can Afford
Expand practical housing options, protect neighborhood stability, and help seniors, working families, and young people remain in the community they call home.
Safe and Welcoming Neighborhoods
Support effective emergency response, community-based prevention, and responsible approaches to mental health crises so every Concord resident feels safe.
Thriving Local Businesses
Strengthen small businesses, revitalize commercial corridors, and build on the energy of Todos Santos Plaza to make Concord a destination for the entire region.
Reliable Streets and Infrastructure
Repair aging roads, sidewalks, and essential infrastructure while improving safe routes for drivers, pedestrians, bicyclists, children, and seniors.
Parks and Public Spaces for Everyone
Invest in clean, beautiful, and accessible parks, recreation programs, and gathering spaces that bring neighbors together and support Concord’s quality of life.
A Concord Where Everyone Belongs
Listen to every neighborhood, welcome every voice, and make sure District 1 residents have a responsive representative who will fight for their needs.
Compassionate Solutions to Homelessness
Connect unhoused residents with shelter, mental health care, substance-use treatment, and a realistic path toward stable housing while keeping public spaces safe and accessible.
