ALL FOUR ISSUES
Pick an issue
Each issue below is a real responsibility of an office on the Richmond ballot. Every party on this site is covered on the same four, so a party cannot look complete by choosing which subjects to appear on.
Housing
Advance Richmond's candidates promised faster renovation and housing permits, with Grace Tsang's statement setting a target of three days for minor renovations and one year for high-rises.
Budget
In October 2026 posts the organization promised to freeze municipal property taxes for restaurants and grocery stores, to make all City-run parking free for Richmond residents while visitors keep paying, and to publish timelines and costs for City projects.
Governance
Advance Richmond's mission statement says "major decisions change with residents, not without them".
Schools
Advance Richmond's trustee candidates promised to let the public speak on agenda items at board and committee meetings, to publish data on substance use, bullying and violence against staff, to set up a business advisory committee for the district, and to expand co-op and internship programs.
