Public Safety
Safe neighborhoods are the foundation of a strong community. Brendon is committed to funding and supporting our Orange Police Department and Orange City Fire Department with the resources, staffing, and equipment they need to keep families safe and respond quickly to emergencies.
As a veteran who served in combat zones in various locations in East Africa and the Middle East, Brendon understands the importance of security and will work to ensure proactive policing, strong fire protection, and effective emergency preparedness across District 6.
Responsible Growth
Orange's unique character is what makes it special. Brendon believes in smart, responsible growth that preserves the quality of life residents love while ensuring the city's fiscal health for the future.
He will fight to maintain the character of our neighborhoods, promote sensible development, and make sure that growth serves the people of Orange, not outside interests.
Protecting Natural Resources
As Chair of the Santiago Creek Commission, Brendon has spent years working to preserve open space, protect local waterways, and enhance one of Orange's most treasured natural resources.
On the City Council, he will continue this stewardship, ensuring our parks, trails, and open spaces remain beautiful and accessible for future generations of Orange families.
Fiscal Responsibility
Brendon believes city government should be a good steward of taxpayer dollars. He will bring the same discipline and accountability he learned in the military to the city's budget process.
That means prioritizing essential services, eliminating waste, and ensuring every dollar is spent wisely to deliver results for Orange residents.
Transparency & Accountability
Local government works best when it works in the open. Brendon is committed to ensuring City Hall is transparent, accessible, and responsive to the people it serves.
He will fight for open communication between residents and their local government, because accountability starts with trust.
Supporting Local Businesses
Orange's small businesses are the backbone of our local economy. Brendon will work to create a business-friendly environment that helps local entrepreneurs thrive while preserving the character of our commercial districts.
From Old Towne to our neighborhood centers, a strong local economy means more jobs, better services, and a vibrant community.
