Re-Elect, Mayor Racquel Vasquez for City of Lemon Grove!

Dear Neighbors,
I’ve been a dedicated public servant for nearly two decades with a proven track record of developing working relationships throughout our region and delivering results. Working with representatives throughout San Diego County and at the state and federal levels, we have crafted and implemented pragmatic, real, and common-sense solutions to the challenges that we face every day.   

I’m the only candidate on the ballot to have executive leadership as a mayor serving in my second term for the city of Lemon Grove by:

  • Fiscally managing an Annual Budget averaging $18 million per year while improving streets and ensuring funding to ensure equitable services for all residents, constructing the first community garden in Lemon Grove and creating the first-of-its-kind gift card stimulus program to support local small businesses to stimulate the economy.

  • Helping to humanly and regionally address homelessness, securing a partnership with East County cities to jointly develop practical and innovative programs and policies that reduce homelessness and improve housing availability and affordability.

  • In collaboration with the Lemon Grove School District, opening the city’s Recreation Center to provide computer and internet access for students before and after school.

  • Created policies to improve the health of residents by increasing the walkability throughout each neighborhood, revitalizing parks, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by securing new vehicles and equipment and adopting policies that promote greener and cleaner environments.

We need someone who will continue to deliver results for all of us, and I urge you to pledge your support and vote for me, Racquel Vasquez. Discover my priorities below and let's forge a better future together!

Mayor Racquel Vasquez

Racquel’s Priorities

  • I am dedicated to improving the infrastructure and enhancing neighborhood safety by advocating for local, state and federal resources for our City. Together, we can improve all our neighborhoods and the well-being of our Lemon Grove community.

  • Reviving our local economy is a top priority. I'm determined to achieve this by supporting policies that maintain a balanced budget, promote innovation and strengthen our local economy.

    With a seat on the Executive Board of the League of California Cities and the San Diego Association of Governments, I'll continue to champion transparency and accountability in governance.

  • Shortages of affordable housing are a national issue and more so throughout San Diego County. During my time as Mayor, I strongly advocated for affordable housing, resulting in Lemon Grove becoming the only city in San Diego County to meet California's rigorous state mandates for affordable housing. I will continue to champion policies that promote housing production, preservation and affordability.

  • Tackling homelessness requires collaboration with local non-profits and regional approaches to connect people to housing and services quickly. I will continue to support programs and policies that will provide comprehensive services for mental health and substance use disorders. Together, we can make significant strides in addressing these pressing issues in our city.
