Where the Eight Council Candidates Stand on Housing

There are eight candidates running for Mountain View city council this cycle, and there are three seats. All three incumbents are termed out, so there will be three new councilmembers in January. I’ve spent the summer trying to systematically and objectively review everything each of the candidates has said about housing. You can check out the details at mvyimby.com/rankings.

We have made only one endorsement so far this cycle, James Kuszmaul, and you can see from the data why that is.

Note, these rankings do not yet integrate the Mountain View Voice’s questionnaire. I intend to integrate that soon and will update the rankings when I do.
