"Give me liberty or give me death" -Patrick Henry


  A NOTE FROM JON

I appreciate you taking the time to read this. I took a couple of years off the council while my youngest finished high school. I’m grateful for that time with family. Now, I’m ready to serve again—with fresh energy and the same passion and resolve.

I won’t flood your mailbox with glossy ads.  I believe in spending responsibly—including on campaign literature.

WHY I'M RUNNING AGAIN

Like many of you, I chose Corcoran because of its character, its people, and what it represents. I raised my family here, and I care deeply about our future.   I also believe in representing our citizens to the city, not the other way around.  I will be your voice.
We’re growing—but growth needs to be done right. We need steady leadership that protects what makes Corcoran special while planning responsibly for what’s ahead.
