Eric Hart for District 3 Mendocino County Supervisor
“My priority is strengthening the foundation of county government so it operates efficiently, transparently, and with a culture that encourages everyone to ‘find a way to yes.’”
“
Together, we can thrive.
At its best, local government enables good things to happen: to help residents open businesses, build homes, create jobs, and strengthen our communities. It’s what county employees want too. Unfortunately these days, too many residents feel like the county is a barrier instead of a partner.
I want to change our county's systems and organizational culture towards a mindset of “Find a Way to Yes” — ensuring safety, fairness and compliance — all in service of helping people move forward.
Eric’s PositionS
I believe county government should make systems work better for the people they serve.
The idea is simple enough, but getting it done isn’t.
