Brianne Zorn for Martinez Mayor 2022

The City of Martinez is truly a hidden gem: a vibrant community nestled between the Carquinez Strait and oak woodland hills, marked by charming retail areas and tight-knit neighborhoods. As a parent, I value our schools and parks. As a resident, I value our local businesses, waterfront, and acres of open spaces. As a Councilmember, I recognize the value that living in Martinez brings to our residents, and my decisions have been guided by what is in the best interest of the people of the City of Martinez. During my tenure, we have:

• Adopted an independent redistricting commission;

• Supported the successful Alhambra Highlands ballot measure;  

• Implemented the Nights on Main program;

• Approved funding for marina dredging and emergency repairs to the pier; and 

• Guided the General Plan Update process to shape the future of Martinez. 

As the Mayor, I will set the tone for a united, forward-thinking City Council willing to make proactive decisions for improving quality of life in Martinez. My vision for the coming years includes: 

• A strategic waterfront plan balancing environmental considerations with sustainable development.

• An actionable economic development plan to encourage more retail and commerce areas both north and south of Highway 4.

• Restored trust in City Hall through improved communication and increased transparency.

• Support of an effective high-quality team of City staff to serve the Martinez public. 

• Proactive transportation initiatives including expanded bicycle routes, ferry service, and “last mile” connections to existing transit. 

Let’s work together to make Martinez an even better place to live. Thank you for your vote.
